I was dealing with a lot of things at school and in life and after working with Mr. Skinner and discussing coping strategies, I was able to find a time out, a workout, and a reach out to deal with my stress and anxiety. It made a huge difference both inside and outside of school, and I now can focus on what is in front of me and enjoy much more instead of letting my mind be all over the place and be anxious all the time.
