to spend time alone can only add extra worries upon us instead of reducing our stress. Why do we feel stress and pressure? It  may be caused by the work unfinished, failure to communicate with others or even failure in competition and so on. Under such situations,  what we need is comfort from our friends, our families or classmates etc, whose accompany is an effective way to give us consolation and and reduce our stress. Spending time alone would be of little help to reduce our stress for now we are controlled by the stress.
