Hypertension And Heart Disease
By Crystal..
What we perceive as stressful has great bearing on how well we manage it. Women that are already overloaded will feel more keenly as well. In general, we feel when we experience: negative events, uncontrollable or unpredictable events and ambiguous events.
How stressed you become has much to do with your personality as well. For example, if you have a negative outlook on life, you will probably feel more than someone with a positive attitude. Some women like to find meaning in uncontrollable events, which gices them a sense of control. Others like the challenge of difficult situations.
Our strategies for coping also vary. Some women like to avoid the and minimize the problem. This has short-term benefits but, over the long term, the does not disappear. Women who confront the right away will feel more anxious at first, but will probably feel relief in the long run when they have dealt with it. People who suffer fewer stress-related health problems use humor, spiritual support, and social networking to deal with stress.
If the following statements sound like you, you are probably not managing very well: I tend to imagine all the terrible things could possibly happen to me rather than just concerning myself with the stressful situation at hand. I stop what I am
doing and
devote all my energy toward fixing the problem immediately. I relieve
my latest crisis in my mind over and over again, even after it has
been solved.
An estimated 5 percent of adults, mostly women,
have a condition known as mitral valve prolapse,which causes problems
for only a small number of these individuals.
Working with a
therapist or counselor may help. In the meantime, here are a few suggestions
for reducing some sources of daily stress: isolate the exact source
of and see if there's a solution. See the humor in difficult situations,
and try to look at lessons learned instead of beating yourself up. When times
get tough, surround yourself with supportive people: close friends, family members,
and so on. Do not take things so personally.
