STRESS

Stress is more than just a popular "catch all" for feelings of being overwhelmed. Stress is a real and measurable quality which is threatening to health and to life itself when it gets out of control. Fortunately, there are solutions.

Stress Assessment

If you answer "Yes" to 3 or more of the questions below, OR if you have a strong "Yes, that describes me perfectly!" reaction to even one or two questions, you will benefit from counseling for Stress.

1. Do you wish you could better maintain your concentration, memory and efficiency at tasks even when you are stressed?
2. Do you often find yourself in situations where there is little predictability or control you can exert?
3. Do you often wake up dreading the day, feeling unprepared, or sensing that you will not be able to handle what is expected of you?
4. Has your health suffered in stress-connected ways, for example, with minor but chronic or persistent colds, disrupted sleep, or digestive problems? Have you had a major health breakdown (such as heart attack, ulcer or radical changes in weight)?
5. Do you engage in "nervous habits" such as nail biting, picking at your fingers, chewing the inside of your mouth, or fidgeting?
6. Do you feel irritable much of the time?
7. Do people tell you that you need to slow down, take it easier, or "stop and smell the roses (or coffee)"?
8. Would you welcome a generally calmer, less chaotic life?
