Taking Charge Of Life Is First Step In Recognizing Stress
By Dali* K. Cabe-QiU
Duke Medical Center
Durham, NC • The holiday* are
long over, yet you still feel life's
got you in whirlwind. You may be
suffering from burnout or stress.
Recognising what the stressors -
causes of stress -• are is the first
step in taking charge of your life
■gain, according to Lin Roghelia,
director of activity therapy in the
psychiatry department of Duke
University Medical Center.
"People complain that their life is
out of control in some way," she
. said. "They may feel as if they're
being pulled around by other peo
ple or forces."
I --
Running away from stress
doesn't solve anything. "It's wait
ing for you when you get back. At
least deal with a small part of it at
first. Find out what the -problem
is," she suggested.
Stress can be positive, such as
buying a home, or negative, such
as the death of someone close.
However, daily stress can add up
and not be immediately noticeable.
A dose look at what you've, feeling
or how you're responding t& your
environment may help you recog
nise the signs of stress and its
cauiM.
Physically, you may feel run
down or fatigued all the time. Per
haps you find it difficult to get up
. for work even though you've got
. ten enough sleep. Other physical
signs may be dryness of the throat
and mouth, trembling, stuttering,
nervous tics, grinding teeth,
clenching of the jew, sweeting, in
aomnie, nervous laughter, gas
trointestinal problems or irritable
' bowel syndrome, frequent need to
tqinate, headache* neck and beck
pain, excessive dr loas of appetite
and mieaed menstrual eyelet.
You may notice changes in your
emotional behavior, too. "People
become angry or change moods
more quickly, while others find
they're becoming lees tolerant,"
Roghelia said. A loee of humor,
fsehng helpless and keyed up, or
increased risk taking are other
Overall, your performance may
have diminished. A person may
feel less efficient.. People might
complain they've got the blahs.
"Their initiative and interest has
diminished," she added. Peeling
distracted or an inability to con
centrate on the Job another signs.
, "Others exhibit hypermobility -
the increased tendency to move
about without any reason,* Ro
ghelia said. "These people can't
take a physically relaxed attitude
such m sitting quietly in a chair or
lying on the sofa.*
. At work, pressure easily comes
to mind as a stressor. "Other stree
•or* are lees obvious. If your rol* ia
ambiguous or than is rol* conflict,
you may foal unsun of yourself,"
she nvealed. "Too much work cam
be a strosaor, but so is work under
load."
Unrealistic expectations in your
personal life can add stress as
well. For example, a recently re
tired man may discover that his
golden yean an filled with hours
of boredom and an not what he
expected.
"Lack of support, personality dif
ferences, competition or unre
solved conflicts in interpersonal
relationships an other sources of
stress," Roghelia concluded.
