String replacement tips?

[Guest]

So, probably not the best idea, but I still have my original strings on my acoustic which they're nothing wrong with that, except it can get quite annoying since I have two types of strings 80/20 Bronze and Steel 

Its now down to the little two B and E strings .-. So, I need some tips on what to know to do that I don't break them b/c I'm horrible with string replacements and I would love to get the rest of my new strings on they're without you know breaking them, And if they do reach the point where they can't hold any more tension, and its far from being in tune, What should I do?

put all guitar strings on loosely at first then tune them up slowly to their desired tuning. what gauged set are you using? 12s? and what brand as well?

okay on the E because that will be the hardest, it feels like the strings about to snap, should I leave it and come back to it in the morning so its had some time to stretch?

nevermind I got it

its I'm panicking so much
