Dealing with Self-Doubt as a Student

How I manage negative thoughts and pressure

Self-doubt shows up when I least expect it. Whether it's before an exam, after a bad grade, or just scrolling through social media—it’s always there, whispering that I’m not good enough.

This post is about how I deal with those moments. I talk about the pressure I put on myself, how I’ve started reframing failure, and why opening up to friends makes such a difference.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your own head, you’re not alone—and it does get better.
