Some stress is normal, but excessive stress is not. It can lead to a variety of medical problems, both physical and mental. These can include high blood pressure, impaired immunity from disease, and depression. Here are a few ways to help handle stress.
Eat right. Stress can cause you to eat too much or too little, both of which are unhealthy and can lead to enhanced stress. Make a point of watching your diet carefully when under high stress. Personally I’m always tempted to eat more, but try to watch it.
Learn to say no and to confront potential problems early. For me this is often a problem with taking on too many responsibilities.
