Stress in Everyday Life… are you stressed out?
“I can’t cope anymore!”
“This is too much – I’ve had it!”
Is this what you are feeling right now? Comments such as these are common every day occurrences in our busy lives – and we call it STRESS. Not that long ago, the terms ’worry’, ‘anxiety’, ‘fear’, ‘impatience’, and ‘anger’ gave way to what has been formally termed ‘stress’ and its offshoots, ’stressful’, ’stress-related’, and ’stressed-out’. The popularity and acknowledgement of this concept became increasingly related to everyday life in our fast-paced society.
