澳大利亚高中12年级学生在十月至十一月期末考试期间面临焦虑和心理健康挑战。1研究表明，这一时期学生的焦虑和抑郁症状会显著激增。1焦虑的常见表现包括定期头痛、情绪波动、睡眠障碍、易怒、精力不足以及频繁的负面自我对话。1
为了帮助学生度过这个关键时期，专家提出了四项实用的应对策略。1首先，学生应当学会接纳不确定性，避免过度担忧无法控制的因素。1其次，进行表达性书写能有效缓解压力，建议每周三次进行感恩日记。1第三，建立健康的日常习惯同样重要，包括保证规律睡眠、定期运动、练习正念和接近自然。1最后，学生需要减轻对自己的过度期望和自我压力。1

As Year 12 students in Australia approach their final exams in October and November, many face escalating anxiety and stress. Research indicates that anxiety and depression symptoms surge during examination periods and the final stages of secondary education.1
Recognizing warning signs is essential for early intervention. Students experiencing exam-related anxiety may exhibit regular headaches, atypical mood swings, sleep disturbances, irritability, low energy levels, and persistent negative self-talk.1 To manage these challenges, experts recommend four key strategies. Students should work on accepting uncertainty rather than resisting it, practice expressive writing such as gratitude journaling three times weekly, establish healthy routines including consistent sleep, regular physical activity, mindfulness practices, and time in nature, and deliberately reduce self-imposed pressure.1
Support services remain available for students struggling with their mental health. Those requiring immediate assistance can contact Lifeline at 13 11 14 or Kids Helpline at 1800 55 1800.1
