With all of the changes taking place in our world and in our lives, stress takes on a language of its own
as it manifests itself. The emotional aspects of stress is just one part, but that is the one that
catipultes physical symptoms and negative behavior patterns.
Feelings of anxiety, constant worrying, anger, sadness, depression, irritability and general restlessness
are symptoms of high stress levels. These symptoms manifest themselves by way of headaches, back
pains, tightening of the chest, heart palpitations and disease. Also skyrocketing blood pressure, stomach
ailments and loss of sleep. I don’t know about you but when I see people, including myself , starting to
lose sleep, things can get out of control pretty quick.
The crying jags start, when we over or under eat, start smoking, increase alcohol intake, see
an increase in drug abuse and then it hits our relationships.
That’s when you call time out and say enough is enough.
