"I thought I wouldn't clear my board exams, and I would just cry all the time. Thinking what will happen if I fail?" says Ankita, an 18-year-old Delhi-based student currently in the middle of her 12th standard board exams. She adds that preparing for her boards was so stressful, even her parents couldn't fully understand what she was dealing with. Eventually she started texting a counsellor on a mental health app to talk about her anxiety, and this is an option several CBSE, ICSE and state board students across the country are choosing.
