A person suffers from stress and anxiety for so many reasons. It may start from small and simple things but the effects can be serious. There are also ways in order for one to cope up with it.
1) Fear is anxiety
Anxiety is a fear of something. One who is anxious feels apprehended. Anxiousness of a certain person can be different from another person's feeling uptight.
2) Set yourself free
For some, traveling via air or sea can cause anxiety. Fear from things will stop you from exploring yourself. There are some classes that you can enroll at to help you overcome your fear. Think of it, overcoming your fear is like gaining freedom.
3) Beware of the signs
Some symptoms can be sudden movement, muscle strain, headaches, dryness of the mouth, sweating, trouble in swallowing and pain in the abdomen. These indications can occur with hasty heartbeat and breathing, sexual problems, bad temper poor concentration, low energy and diarrhea.
4) The positive side of stress
Stress can be from one's negative notion or different circumstances that make the person feel anxious, discouraged and angry. On the other hand, stress is a normal thing that one faces almost everyday.
Given its negative effects, it can be good sometimes if it is moderate because it can make a person feel motivated and help one to become more effective.
5) Scary stress
If you face too much stress, it can affect your health physically and mentally. Such things are heart disease, different types of infection, depression, and unusual and fatal diseases.
6) Farewell to a loved one
Losing someone you love can be very painful. A person's grief can become more serious. You should go out and entertain yourself. Avoid having idle moments. Think of the blessings that still comes your way. It is good to divert your attention to different activities such as sports, hobbies, joining clubs or whatever things you may be interested in.
7) Stress at work
A job can also be stressful. You probably have a lot of deadlines to meet and too many responsibilities. Never forget that you also need to give yourself at least a few minutes of relaxation. During break time, you may do some stretching and breathing exercises.
After office hours, you could go out with friends and co-workers and just have a good time.
8) From crisis to suicide
Financial crisis is one of the causes of stress especially in third world countries. Some suffers from hunger and then depression. Their financial situation eats them and sometimes they kill themselves and even their husband, wife and kids thinking that it is the only way to get out of their mess.
If you find yourself in this situation, it would help if you will communicate with your loved ones. Tell them how you feel, what you are thinking and ask for advices. If you think it is not enough, you may also seek professional counseling.
9) The sick becomes more sickly
A patient's physical and mental condition can be affected when they learn that they carry dreaded diseases. They may worry too much and might cause the disease to worsen and consequently slim the chances for survival. You may help a sickly patient by telling them positive things and stories of survival.
Remember that what is inside a person's mind and how one feels is reflected on the outside. So, always smile and think positive. Keep your cool and set yourself free from unhelpful thoughts. Live healthy and live longer.
Hello
Thank you for the great post – valuable reading:)
When talking about coping with stress, one thing I have realized – sometimes the best thing to do is to STOP and take a break. Walk away from the situation and take some time off. A short breaks gives the ability to think about the stressful situation and find solutions. Practice some deep breathing to cool off. After five or ten minutes you´ll feel much better and there is a great chance that the stressors don’t seem so stressful anymore.
Best Regards
