Work Place Stress

Stress is a word in almost everyone’s vocabulary form
a grade schooler to an adult. Most working people will
admit to having Stress in their daily life but few have
any real knowledge of how Stress works or
affects them.

Up until the 1930’s Stress was part of the engineering
world. It was used to describe how different metals
reacted to applied pressure.

A scientist named Hans Seyle first applied Stress to
mean the struggle of all forms of life to adapt to
and deal with changes within their environment.

The early medical profession never used the word
Stress but had different words to describe what the
end results would be when a person was subjected to
constant Stress:a person would be anxious,
depressed or even had a nervous breakdown. There
were no medical diagnoses called “Stress” or
“Stress Reaction”.

Even today Stress is only used by the non medical
profession in writings.

Many scientific studies have been undertaken to try to
understand the effects of Stress on known diseases
and mental disorders. The results will be published
detailing the findings in newspapers and various
medical journals, but still no conclusive evidences will
be accepted since there always appear other studies
that conclude different results.

With new technology and special equipment scientists
are beginning to make some discoveries that may
eventually explain what affects the hormones of the
Stress process has on the human body over time.
Until that time it is up to the individual to control,
eliminate or relieve Stress the best ways they can.

You need to find what works for you and include it in
your Health care routine.
