The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank

depression and her problems with feeling blue. Being confined in the small space for over
two years, Anne and the rest of the occupants seem to come up with their own ways of
handling the pressures.

2. How do others in the Annexe deal with the stress and anxiety?
