Sometimes it seems like there's no way to turn off the steady stream of stress.
Whether it’s taxes, a deadline at work, family conflict, dealing with an illness, school exams, or needing to make an important decision, it's safe to say that all of us have experienced stress in one form or another. In today’s fast-paced world, it's virtually impossible to avoid.
What is Stress?
Contrary to popular belief, not all stress is bad. It's a part of normal living that helps us be productive and is reported by folks at all ages.¹ In fact, stress actually can be a positive that helps us learn things like:
- Resilience
- Problem solving
- How to adapt to everyday challenges
Stress becomes a problem when it's intense, recurring, or remains unresolved over a period of time. At that point, stress takes a toll and can be very damaging.
It can affect the way we learn, our behavior, peace of mind, and ultimately, our health. By some estimates, as much as 90% of all illness is initiated and aggravated by stress.² Over the long term, it can increase your chances of developing diseases like blood sugar and heart issues, substance abuse, and feelings of anxiousness.
What is Anxiousness?
Many people use the terms stress and anxiousness interchangeably in everyday conversation. But there is a difference.
Stress is a response to the pressures we feel in life. These pressures, in turn, cause adrenaline to be released. Too much adrenaline produced for an extended period can lead to low mood, a rise in blood pressure, and other negative effects.
One of these negative effects is anxiousness. It's the process by which a person becomes scared and apprehensive of what lies ahead, and often manifests itself in physical problems like dizziness, pain, shortness of breath, and panic attacks.
In other words, stress is a response to an existing stress-causing factor (stressor). Anxiousness is the continued experience of stress that is out of proportion to the stressor or that continues well after the stressor is gone. Though they are closely related, not all people who experience stress will experience anxiousness.
Properly managing your stress is a critical factor in preventing anxiousness and the host of other problems that it can lead to. Be sure to educate yourself on the strategies to manage stress.
