How to stop getting so stressed out?

I always get so stressed out about everything because people are always expecting so much from me!!! I get really good grades, so everybody always comes to me for answers, and if I don’t have them, they say something like, “OMG, am I actually smarter than YOU right now?!” or when it comes to piano, my teacher is always saying things like, “great job, I can’t wait to hear what you have next week!” but then if I don’t get time to practice, I feel like I am letting her down. Same thing with sports like soccer, I feel like my coach is always expecting so much for me that if I don’t deliver, she will be disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, compliments are nice and all, but I always have so much pressure on me to do good in EVERYTHING so when I don’t, I get really stressed that I’m letting someone down, whether its my parents, my teachers, my classmates, my coach or my piano instructor. What should I do?! Everyone tells me I need to stop getting so stressed, but I don’t know what to do about all of this!!! HELP PLEASE!!???!!!

Answer #1

don’t worry about living up to other expectations, live up to yours. and don’t worry about letting others down, bc chances are they’ve let you down before and/or they will let you down atleast once or twice. live your life for you, not others.

Answer #2

Okay, stop worrying about letting others down. And stop putting others before you. It’s obviously messing you up, and at what cost? No one perfect hun. [:

Answer #3

thanks, but its not as easy as it sounds!!! Sometimes I feel like if I let others down, they won’t like/love me anymore!!!
