Questions, answered
Is this therapy or medical treatment?
No. This is a guided self-help experience built on practical, well-known methods. It is not therapy, diagnosis, or a replacement for a professional. If your feelings are intense or lasting, please speak with a doctor or mental-health professional.
Who is this session for?
Waiting for results, fear of low marks, fear of parents’ reaction, comparison after result, uncertainty, and “what will happen now?” thoughts.
Who is it NOT suitable for?
Self-harm thoughts, severe panic, severe depression, unsafe family reaction, intense shame, or crisis-level result distress. Important Safety Note This session must strongly mention: if a student feels unsafe, hopeless, or has thoughts of self-harm before/after results, they should immediately talk to a trusted adult and seek urgent professional support.
How long does it take?
About 35-45 min, split into small steps. You can pause and resume anytime, and revisit as often as you like.
Is my information private?
Yes. Anything you write in the activities is saved privately on your own device, never uploaded.
Do I get worksheets I can keep?
Yes. The session includes worksheets, trackers and a 7-day plan you can view on screen and download as a PDF.
