WHAT IS STRESS?


Stress is a feeling of not able to cope up with your
situations. In simple words, it is how the brain and body respond to any
demand. Stress is a response to the physically, mentally, or emotionally
occurring changes.


Stress is a normal part of life. Your body reacts to any
change that requires adjustment or response.

You can experience stress from your environment, your body,
and your thoughts. Even positive life changes such as a promotion, a mortgage,
or the birth of a child produce stress.     

         

Stress can be a motivator, and it can even be essential to
survival. The bodyโ€™s fight-or-flight mechanism tells a person when and how to
respond to danger.


WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF STRESS?


The situations and pressures that cause stress are known as
stressors. Not all stress is caused by external factors. Stress can also be
internal or self-generated, when you worry excessively about something that may
or may not happen, or have irrational, pessimistic thoughts about life.

Sometimes, the situation is stressful for you but not for others and they may
enjoy it. For e.g. some of you may be terrified of getting up in front of
people to perform or speak but others may love to be in the spotlight.


There is no perfect reason why you may feel less stressed
than another when facing the same stressor. Mental health conditions, such as
depression, or a building sense of frustration, injustice, and anxiety can make
some of you feel stressed more easily than others.

HOW TO GROW YOUR SOCIAL NETWORK?


Cast a wide net: 


Look to different relationships for
different kinds of support. But remember to look to people you can trust and
count on, to avoid disappointing, negative interactions that can make you feel
worse.


Be proactive:


Make time for friends and family. Reach out to
lend a hand or just say hello. If youโ€™re there for others, theyโ€™ll be more
likely to be there for you.


Take advantage of technology:

 

Technology makes it easier
than ever before to stay connected with loved ones far away. You can sit down
with a friend face-to-face and share your problems.


Follow your interests: 


Do whatever you wish to do based on
your interests such as hiking, singing, playing tennis, writing, etc. Try to
enjoy the experience as you get to know others over time.


Seek out peer support:


If youโ€™re dealing with a specific stressful situation such as caring for
a family member or dealing with a chronic illness
  โ€”  you
may not find the support you need from your current network. Consider joining a
support group to meet others who are dealing with similar challenges.

 

Improve your social skills:

 

If you feel awkward in social
situations and just donโ€™t know what to say, try asking simple questions about
the other person to get the ball rolling. If youโ€™re shy, it can be less
intimidating to get to know others over shared activities โ€” such as a bike ride
or a knitting class โ€” rather than just hanging out and talking.


Ask for help: 


If you lack a strong support network and
arenโ€™t sure where to start, there are resources you can turn to. Places of
worship, senior and community centers, local libraries, refugee and immigrant
groups, neighborhood health clinics, etc. you can consider visiting.
