B. Let Us Study
Reading: STRESS MANAGEMENT
Dictionary definitions do not quite capture the meaning of stress as it is seen
and experienced in the world of work. One of the Webster’s definitions describes it
as an “…emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension.”
A practical way of defining stress is the feeling one gets from prolonged, pent-
up emotions. If the emotions you experience are pleasant and desirable – joy,
elation, ecstasy, delight – you usually feel free to let them show. They are not
suppressed. Therefore; positive emotions do not usually cause stress. Negative
emotions, on the other hand, are more often held inside. They are hidden. You
suffer quietly and you experience stress. Do not confuse positive situations with
positive emotions. A wedding, for example, is a positive situation that often brings
about the negative emotions of anxiety and tension. So stress can exist in great
situations.
Causes and Effects of Stress
Just as there is great variety in the range of emotions you might experience,
there are many possible manifestations of stress – in your private life and in your
working life. Here are some words that describe the emotions associated (as cause
and effect) with stress.
• Anxiety
• Pressure
• Misery
• Strain
• Desperation
• Tension
• Anger
• Panic
• Rejection
Prolonged stress can be devastating; burnout, breakdown, and depression are
some of the potential results of long-term, unmanaged stress. By wearing a mask,
you may expect to hide stress caused by problems in your personal life and not let
them influence your performance on the job. This will probably not work. The more
you try to hold your emotions in, the greater the pressure build-up will be.
