TOPIC: HEALTH
What are the factors that cause stress and how to cope with stress?
Essay:
Life today is filled with sources of stress, much of which cannot be avoided. When stress
appears to be a lifelong problem to many people, how it actually forms remains a subject of con-
troversy to many scientists. The objective of this essay is to outline both the sources of stress and
appropriate ways of dealing with it.
Many stressors arise from people's circumstances. For example, the high-pressured and
fast-paced lifestyle has made it unlikely for people to gain adequate leisure time. Failure to bal-
ance work and leisure causes them either to struggle with deteriorating health or to cope with
psychological distress, e. g., anxiety and depression. Together with some other problems, such as
disharmony with others, unpleasant work or living environment, it would increase stress to an
unmanageable level.
Another group of stressors is intertwined with personality. People interpret events or situ-
ations differently. A problem taken as a threat by many people might be accepted as a positive
challenge to others. Evidence is inconclusive about the reasons behind this distinction, but it is
widely believed that a person of a cheerful disposition is less likely to be heavily affected by ad-
versity. Of equal importance is the ability to handle some issues, such as time and money. Con-
sidering the role of personality in deciding the attitudes toward an issue and responses to an
event, the effect of stress management skills actually varies from person to person.
Methods to cope with stress are many, but the most effective ones are in fact not remote
or complicated but accessible and practicable. People under stress are advised to participate
more in recreational activities, adopt a sound dieting habit, and exercise regularly. They should
learn to block out worries and try to keep the effect of a challenge in life to a minimum. Finally,
it is important to nurture a good state of mind and to perceive things positively.
As suggested above, environmental factors can be taken as the sources of stress' and per-
sonality determines the extent to which they are influenced by those factories, adopt• a lifestyle
and proper attitudes toward life can promote people's physical and psychological well-being and
help them relieve stress.
