What is Stress?

Stress is not a disease or illness but sustained and prolonged stress can lead to illness due to the demands it puts on the body and it's organs. The dictionary lists it as "tension" and "strain". We do need a certain amount of stress to function efficiently but some people are more affected by stress than others. What is stressful for one person may not be stressful for another.

Some possible symptoms due to stress, work related or otherwise may be:

Physical - headaches, backache and neckache, blurred vision, raised heart rate, increased sweating, digestive problems, difficulty sleeping, increased susceptibility to colds and other infections, lower sex drive, muscular tension

Emotional - loss of motivation and commitment, poor relationships with others, inability to plan and concentrate on work, short temper, getting less work done, feeling that you have achieved nothing at the end of the day, feeling you can't cope, eating when you're not hungry or loss of appetite, smoking and drinking too much just to get you through the day.

It is impossible to escape the pressure of modern living and work altogether so you must learn how to manage your stress. With these therapies on offer and some self help techniques that you can be taught, help is at hand.
