Stress doesn't always manifest in the way we think it might. Here are a few different scenarios that demonstrate how daily life can produce unexpected stress-related symptoms.
- You have a busy schedule and very little time to yourself. When you do spend time alone, you feel guilty and selfish about it and have trouble relaxing.
- You know many people and have a busy social calendar. But you are often nervous and anxious because you want to please all the people in your life, and you count on their approval.
- You feel as if you're never able to finish projects around the house, and those unfinished tasks regularly weigh on your mind. They distract you when you are engaged in unrelated activities, such as work or social events.
- You really like your job but often have unrealistic expectations of the number of projects you can take on at once. You often have eyestrain or head, neck or back pain after a typical day at the office.
