Consequences of Stress


15 years ago 0 11214 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0

Members,

We’ve talked about anger, stress and disputes. We will now be discussing specific stress management strategies in a variety of settings & contexts.

Learning stress management skills is part of having a healthy lifestyle. It is just as important as learning how to eat well.  Exposure to stress over long periods of time has been linked to the development of:

• Frequent headaches
• Upset stomach
• Diarrhea or constipation
• Lowered immune system
• Disturbed sleeping patterns
• High blood sugar
• High blood pressure
• Increased cholesterol

Does this sound familiar to anyone? How do you feel or know when your stressed? How did panic come into play here?
