What is stress?

Stress is: When you’re worried When you’re scared When you’re angry When you’re frustrated When you’re overwhelmed

What causes stress? Parents – “Hurry up, do your homework, do your best, stay out of trouble. . .” Friends – “I don’t like that, don’t wear that, try this. . .” Yourself – “I need to do better, be different. . .”

Other things that cause stress: Watching parents argue Being pressured to do something you know you shouldn’t Not being/feeling good enough Worrying about how your body is changing Worrying about your family, friends, neighborhood Feeling guilty

Is Stress Always Bad? No, it’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes stress helps us deal with hard situations. Think about a long time ago when people lived in the jungle—where a tiger might leap out at any moment. If you saw a tiger and had to run, how does that feel in your body?

If Stress is good, why does it make us feel bad? Today, we don’t have to run away from tigers. . . It’s important to use our brain to help decide what is a real emergency Use exercise to use up that energy The trick is to figure out when something is really an emergency and when your emotions are only treating it like one!

How do I cope with stress?

Some of the bad things to do: Fighting Bullying Skipping school Running away Hurting your body Pulling away from people who love you Gangs

Some of the good things to do: Take care of my body by: Exercising Getting good rest and relaxation Eating three meals a day Drinking plenty of water Never get too: H – Hungry A – Angry L – Lonely T – Tired

More good things: Ask for help if you need it – there is always someone who is willing to listen Pay attention to the things that make you feel good, peaceful, calm Journal – write about what is bothering you Do something for someone else.
