VIDEO 2 OF 2: SHORT SCENES
Frame yourself in camera so we can see you from the waist up. Show us the below short scenes.
1. It you are sitting on your bed or couch writing an essay on your laptop late at night. You are visibly stressed. Sit in that feeling for 5-10 seconds, maybe rub your temples or tap your fingers on the keyboard.
2. You are still working on that essay but now you are frustrated, you rip off sticky note that was attached to the laptop and throw it on the floor. You start searching around you for your vape pen but don't find it. Suddenly you notice the sticky note is back on your laptop. Agitated you rip it off again. But sticky notes keep appearing on your laptop, and all around you until you are surrounded by sticky notes. You are bewildered looking around everywhere until you curl up with your head between your legs.

VIDEO 3 OF 3: SCRIPT:
Read the below script TWO TIMES. You do not have to memorize these lines, but ideally there is a distinct difference between your two reads.
" Life can be a lot sometimes. That’s because the THC in weed can attach to receptors in the brain that control fear and anxiety...making it harder to manage stress and anxiety on your own.
So, while you think your problems are going away.. they’re actually still waiting for you.
