Finding what is causing the anxiety and
addressing it is the preferred and most
effective solution. Unfortunately,
this is not always possible.
A first step is to take an inventory of
what you think might be making you
stresses out. What do you worry about
most? Is there something constantly
on your mind? Does anything in
particular make you sad or depressed?
Then, find someone you trust who will
listen to you. Very often, talking
can help relieve anxiety. Most
communities have resources like self-help
groups and hotlines which can help with
problems of anxiety. Ministers,
social workers, friends, neighbors, and
family can all play a therapeutic role.
Avoid using mood-altering drugs when
overwhelmed by life's problems. These
drugs will not provide a solution and can
often cause additional difficulties.

Stress is not a disease and is a normal
part of everyone's life. Stress in small
quantities is good: it makes us more
productive. For example, the fear of a
bad grade can make the a student study
more attentively.
However, too much stress is unhealthy and
counterproductive. The same student, if
he was recently mugged and or is getting
over the sudden death of a friend will not
be able to study as well.

Job And Stress Posted: 05-30-05 00:38am
Can your job make you sick?
Try not to get worked up on the job: new
research suggests that work-related stress
can be as harmful as smoking.
In a study published in the british
medical journal, harvard university
researcher yawen chang, ph.D., surveyed
more than 21,000 women and found that
those with the most demanding jobs, little
control over their work environment, and
lack of support from co-workers and
supervisors were more likely to suffer
from stress than those more content with
their jobs. They also found that women
suffered physical effects: symptoms ranged
from anxiety to difficulty performing
daily tasks like climbing stairs.
My job press pressure on me.And I can't
sleep well,even when I fall asleep,i still
work in my dream.
I don't know how to do .

Thanks for your question.
There I can only give you my personal
advices.
You'd better see your doctor and get the
professional advices.
There is some tips ,maybe helpful for
you.
To control stress effectively, we must
first know what is causing the stress.
Then we must consider whether we can do
anything about it. Some causes of stress
can be changed or adjusted while others
have simply to be accepted. In both cases
however, we can change the way we react
and learn how to cope more effectively.
