I will tell you about how I deal with it. A while ago, I was so anxious about the future, will I be successful? Will I be able stand with my peers? I'm i a burden to those around me? Those questions made me make wrong choices that messed me up the more. How did I overcome this:
I was courageous yes, courage will help you, to speak up, tell someone you stress about your problems, you're doubts.
I took advices after confiding to him or her, listen to what he says and take the advice.
I changed my mindset I tried to encourage myself more often and focused more on what's ahead of me and not on the future.
I gave myself regular breaks yes, we need to work, but I choose how much more I need to do each day and tried relaxing more. It actually works. Yes, I did more things like making friends(real ones) and talking more care of myself and I tried no to accept every request that comes my way. This helped me become more positive and it made me change from the man I used to be to a better version of myself.

I learned to manage stress and the results are looking good, so everyone too can do the same. You don't always have to carry the load alone, you don't have to be the one always in pleasing others and displeasing yourself. Love yourself more, feel happy and more importantly be free from stress.
