What is stress? It is a feeling that is created when we react to particular events. It is the body's way of rising to a challenge and preparing to meet a tough situation with focus, strength, stamina. The events that provoke stress are called stressors, and they cover a whole range of situations - everything from outright physical danger to making a class presentation.
I have done Stress test. Results have shown that my Quality of life score is 3,6 on a range of 1 to 5. This is a measure of how happy or satisfied I am with my life, including overall self-esteem, health, friends, family.
Secondly, symptom distress score is 3,33 points. This score measures my symptoms od depression, anxiety, hostility.
Moreover, level of functiong score - 4,38. This is a measure of how well I am able to get along in the community.
In conclusion, as each of people is different, there is no one correct way to cope with stress. However, there are a number of defferent things that can be done to reduce stress: identify your problems, talk about your problems, learn about stress management, reduce tension, take your mind off your problems.
