Stress is Sort of Funny
Stress sort of funny. Not *chuckles* funny, but *strange* funny. It can make you act heroic, or it can destroy your health and life.
How stress affects you Depends on your quantity of stress and what kinds of stress you have. It can also depend on what kinds of stress you've had in your past and how you learned to deal with it.
The biological signs of stress are meant to help you physically survive. In your world, this is rarely helpful, since most stress today is psychological.
Psychological stress will come from issues such as concern about money, relationships, and your health. Your body's physical reaction to stress does not help these situations. Since these situations are common and long-lasting, your body can potentially be in a constant state of stress.
Your body being in a constant state of stress causes stress related health problems ranging from muscle pain, sleep disorders, poor decision making, PTSD, depression and stomach problems. The health trouble from stress can add to the stress you already have.
It becomes obvious that managing your stress is preferred to letting it go. But, there are thousands of people telling you how to do this. Making the right choice for you comes down to finding what fits your problems as well as your lifestyle.
Looking into what causes you stress as well as how you experience stress.
It can be helpful to decide of your stress is situational or behavioral - Is your stress reaction appropriate for the current situation or does it feel blown out of proportion? Figuring this out can require some brutal honesty on your part.
Situational stress is generally easier to figure out, and since it's about a situation, it is generally more short-term. What common stress management methods will work for you? Is it realistic to expect yourself to get some form of exercise and a proper diet? (I know from personal experience, if I have high stress it is when my life is too busy to work-out or get to the grocery store for planned meals)
If it is behavioral, spending some time looking at the situation analytically may help. Look at your past and see if it is affecting your present, such as memories of past emotional trauma. (The stronger the emotion, the more vivid the memory. The more vivid the memory, the stronger the stress you will continue to feel from it.)
When you better understand your past, you are better able to find ways to effectively deal with it.
Situational stress you can work through and will eventually be behind you. Behavioral stress may need outside help to get behind you and may take a little more time to get beyond. It IS possible, will take some effort, and IS worth doing.
If you consider your stress a serious problem, seek professional help. Prescription Medicine is sometimes an answer, though many people complain of side effects and do not like the foggy feeling some medicines give. They'll sometimes say they don't know which is worse, to live in a fog or to be stressed.
Look into your options and find what fits for you. Then, make use of them. When it comes to improving your life, the only poor choice is to not make a choice.
