So How Do You Know If You're Too Stressed |
|
Everybody copes with stress in different ways. People exhibit varying
symptoms of stress according to their unique make-up and particular
weak points. If you are not managing your stress well, you will develop
certain physical, emotional, mental, behavioural or spiritual symptoms
(see stress test). By doing this test you will become more aware of
your own unique stress response. Perhaps the next time you have a
headache or become ill you may ask yourself: “Is my body trying to
tell me I am stressed? Do I need to slow down or do something to bring
down my stress levels? Am I close to breaking point?” This awareness is
exteremely useful. The next time you are irritable or snap at someone,
it may be a warning signal that your stress levels are mounting.
