But other times, you might not know what's bugging you at all. In this situation, it is very important to figure it out first. The best thing to do is to ask yourself, "What is it I'm worried about?" To have example, let's say you are worried about a teacher in a particular subject. Now, let's try to figure out why you are worried about that teacher. If you give time thinking about it, you would soon discover that maybe you are just worried about the subject itself. Furthermore, so will soon figure out that, that's actually what bothering you. So what do think you should do? Try to get some help with that subject, tell your parents about it, and I'm sure they find ways to make you fell better and cope up with your problem in that subject.

2. Think of ways to make things better is another thigh you can do. There is almost always something you can do to help you feel less worried.

Switch to action mode and do something about it. It may not solve your worries in a click of your finger but taking action will help you feel hopeful, and maybe feel less worried.

3. Another thing you can do is to ask yourself what really is bothering you. If your problem is your grades in school, then think of the best action to do. Figure it out. Ask yourself these questions, "Why are grades important?" "What do they mean to me?" "How do I prepare for class?" "Do I review my notes even there's not a test the next day?" "Am I doing my duties as a student?" "Am I studying enough to get good grades?" These are some of the question you might ask yourself and these questions are important. When you answer them all, it means you already figured out what's best course of action. This will surely guarantee you to solve out of your problem.

4. But when things get too complicated and you can't think of anything to do to make your particular problem better. Then, its time to ask for help. Worries can make you feel lonely and unhappy, too. When you are worried, it helps to find someone to talk to. There are a lot of people who are always ready to listen to you. You have your friends, teachers, classmates, and most importantly your parents and brothers and sisters.

5. Sometimes, you might be in a defensive mode and try to reason out, "Why should I bother? He/She can't do anything about it anyway." But the truth is, it is good to give it a shot anyway. There's nothing to loss about telling your worries to someone. Expressing your worries and problems to other people will help you fell better. That way, you will not be alone. Even the smallest way, they for sure have something to offer or say that will help you.

And lastly, the next time you worry, figure it out, think, and find ways to make things better. Asking for help if needed to will help you solve your worries. As the saying goes "Don't worry, be happy".
