 Everyone feels stress at one time or another in their life so the question is how do we deal with stress?  What is your “go to” stress reliever?  Who do you vent to when you have a problem?  Is their a place you go to get away from it?

 Acute stress: “Temporary”  Chronic stress: “Unrelieved or long term”  How can acute stress become chronic?  What are the dangers of chronic stress?

 Exhaustion  Damage to heart and blood vessels  Often results in self destructive behaviors as a means of escape  Diminished immune system function(get sick more)

 Rise in blood pressure  Rapid shallow breathing  Raised body temp. and sweating  Feeling weakness, faintness  Grinding teeth during sleep  Sleeplessness  Loss of appetite, sudden weight loss  Excessive appetite, sudden weight gain  Frequent illness, Accident proneness

 Anxiety, irritability, or depression  Emotional instability  Compulsive behavior  Insecurity, excessive worrying  Increased awkwardness in social situations  Avoidance of activities  Loss of energy  Feeling powerless

Because of the sudden rise of stress hormones and energy being used in the resistance phase your body needs time to rest and recover. This is why people are often exhausted following high stress situations.

 Time management: make a list and set dates and times to get things done  Use coping devices: Safe short term ways of managing stress ie: venting  Use displacement: transfer the energy into something else ie: exercising
