    • Abstract:
      Summary: School pressure, BFF drama, body changes, social media, dating-is it any wonder you're feeling stressed? You aren't alone. Many teens today find themselves worried, anxious, and stressed out. But there are ways you can take control of your stress before it interferes with your life. This go-to "survival guide" will show you how to deal with stress so you can get back to the things that make you happy. With this fun and easy guide, you'll learn how cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help you challenge negative thoughts and replace them with more helpful, flexible ways of seeing life's challenges. You'll also discover how important it is to slow down and notice the things that are really going well in your life! Finally, you'll learn to figure out what's really important to you, and how you can use your values to build resilience against stress and future setbacks. -- Amazon.
