I think my entire freshman year i was perpetually Anxious and Stressed. it helped to create a detailed schedule for myself and explore campus often. you’re in a very new environment and discovering how to be an adult, you’ll be scared for a while but it’ll go away!

Depends on what was giving me anxiety. But it helps to remind myself that I just have to take it one step at a time, and hesitating because I’m scared is not going to do anything to help me. I may not know exactly what I’m doing, but I will just keep going and figure it out along the way. You can always turn around if you take the wrong turn. Most things in life are forgiving, you have to let yourself be one too!
