Analysis of Stess

This report is on stress, what causes it, how and why, and how

it can be cured. It will tell you all about stress, why it's important

for people to understand, and what it can do to you and other people.

Stress affects everyone and everything, that's why it's important that

we all be properly educated on it. First, we need to understand what

stress is. Stress is basically the body's nonspecific response to any

demand. Another way of describing stress is any nervousness or

anxiety. Almost all people relate the word stress to discomfort or

pressure. What they are actually thinking of is distress, which is

often referred to as stress. There are many things that cause stress.

In my opinion, this is the most important part of this whole report

because knowing the cause for stress can help you avoid stressful

situations. Just about any problem using thought can cause stress. One

of the most stressful of all things, especially for teenagers, are

social events. Popularity, friends, relationships, and looks are

more stressful things to teenagers than parents. However, adults tend

to face such stressors as meeting deadlines, fear of failure, anger,

and frustration at the workplace. Everybody is effected by stress when

it comes to things like wars, pollution, poverty, overcrowding, and

crime. It is important to learn how to live with these situations,

because it is nearly impossible to get through life without

encountering them.

Most people know that stress could be bad, but how bad?

Physicians have proven that stress-related disorders, diseases brought

on or worsened by psychological stress, are more likely to happen to

people with very busy lives. The sad results of too much stress can

be: depression, drug use, crime, dropping out of school, accidents,

and even suicide. These psychosomatic disorders commonly involve the

autonomic nervous system, which controls the body's internal organs.

Some kinds of headache and back and facial pain, asthma, stomach

ulcers, high blood pressure, and premenstrual stress are examples of

stress-related disorders. (Funk & Wagnall's.) Respiratory disorders

also can be affected by stress. Most common of these is asthma which

may be caused by emotional upsets. (Funk & Wagnall's.) In addition,

emotional stress can cause or aggravate many skin disorders, from

those that produce itching, tickling, and pain to those that cause

rashes and pimples. Treatment of stress-related disorders is sometimes

limited to relieving the particular physical symptom involved; for

example, hypertension may be controlled with drugs. (Funk &

Wagnall's.) Psychological treatments are attempts to help the person

to relieve the source of stress or to learn to deal with it.

Combinations of physical and psychological treatments are often

recommended. There are many type of "toys," that help deal with stress

also, these are things that you can buy at a local store or make at

home. These things consist of toys like the stress balloon, this lets

you get rid of stress and frustration by tightly gripping a balloon

filled with flour. Another stress
