It might help to understand a little about the nature of worry and what it is. With
worrying, the important thing is to understand if you can take action (采取行动) that will
reduce (减少) your worry and help you avoid whatever you're worrying about. For example,
you might want to study for the test next time! It's a case (情况) that a little worry can
be helpful. You're worried about the test, so you get down to (着手于) your studies.
About a quarter of the kids say they turn to the Internet when they are worried. That
can be helpful in some cases-like when you're on this website, we hope! You might want to
use it as a starting point and then talk to someone about what you learned on the Internet.
But the Internet may not be enough for some worries.
Only 9% say they try to do something about what is causing their worries, and about 25%
of kids keep their worries to themselves. Kids don't have to tell everyone everything, but
if they have serious worries, it's usually best to turn to someone who can help. Parents
and friends are the top choices, but some kids say they talk to teachers (13%) or doctors
and nurses (4%).
Sometimes worry gets to be too much. It can make small problems seem bigger than they
are. And if the problem is actually a big one, just worrying about it probably won't help.
Worry can even hurt your sleep and keep you from having fun and doing your best. But we
don't wish you to worry about worrying!
