It’s that time again, exam time.
It may be your first time going through this with a teen, or it may be that the more you go through it, the more difficult it gets. You know they are bright, you know they’ve done the work, and they really want to succeed. Unfortunately, exam anxiety and the desire to do well can go hand in hand
You may be noticing
- Anxiety building as exams get closer
- Panic, overwhelm or emotional outbursts
- “My mind goes blank” or fear of failing
- Avoiding revision or struggling to focus
- Putting huge pressure on themselves
You’re not alone—and more importantly, this can be changed. Remember, exam anxiety is incredibly common, especially in bright, conscientious teenagers. Whilst a certain level of nerves is normal, too much anxiety can interfere with memory, focus, and performance.
The good news?
Your teen doesn’t need to “get rid” of anxiety completely….They just need to learn how to manage it.
Hypnotherapy can help, including coping skills and strategies.
