76 Words1 Page

Alonzo
I think everyone who took this class was stressed out. Even if a student used their time wisely, the workload could take a toll on their health. Not only are students vulnerable to anxiety and depression by the time they graduate, but also hopelessness as well (Leibow, 2010). I noticed that by spending time with positive people, for example, it has provided me with the mental support that is needed to be successful in college.
