Patient Education Overcoming Stress Bereavement Coping With Change Depression Early Recognition of Psychosis ... Programs Available Everybody has it, and everybody talks about it, but nobody really knows what stress is. WHY? It is because stress means different thing for each of us, and is also different for each of us. This pamphlet aims to provide you with information on stress and how you can battle stress effectively in your daily life. Manage your stress and become more productive rather than self-destructive. WHAT IS STRESS? Stress is a part of modern living. It is unavoidable. To your body, stress is equivalent to CHANGE. Anything that causes a change in your life causes stress. Change can be real or imagined (or what we typically call “worrying”). Both these types of change can be equally stressful. Stress serves a purpose when it provides us with the motivation to scale new challenges or overcome difficulties. Stress only becomes harmful when it is not proportionate to the severity of the situation, and when it interferes with the physical, work and social aspects of our daily lives. WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF STRESS?

Webmaster Good Stress - Bad Stress We all know what stress feels like, but we may not know what it really is. Basically, it's our natural response to the changes we face in life. We all need some of it to keep us going and to make life exciting, but too much can be harmful. "Enough" and "too much" are different for each of us. New experiences, whether good or bad, bring stress with them. Physically, the body reacts the same to stress whether it's positive or negative. Our eyes get wider, heartbeat and breathing speed up and blood sugar levels rise. We may get a little pale as our blood rushes to prepare for action, and our digestive system slows to allow other things to happen. Once the problem that created all this is resolved, our bodies return to normal. If the problem isn't resolved, our bodies return to normal. If the problem isn't resolved, stress can build up and cause all kinds of physical and emotional symptoms. Symptoms Head and back aches, muscle cramps

5272.1: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 - Board 2 Abstract #15740 Stress, mental health and use of mental health services Robin A. Cohen, PhD and Deborah Rose, PhD. Division of Health Interview Statistics, National Center for Health Statistics, 6525 Belcrest Road, Hyattsville, MD 20782, 301-458-4152, Rzc6@cdc.gov Our past research shows that a high proportion of persons who report have one or more mental health conditions also have high or moderate stress in the past year. We found that females (65%) were more likely to report stress than males (55%). However, little information was known about actual mental health service use. This paper uses the 1998 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) to explore the relationship between stress, mental health and access to mental health care services. The NHIS is a household survey of the civilian non-institutionalized resident population of the United States. The 1998 data is a rich source of information on stress, mental health indicators, mental health diagnoses and use of mental health services. This presentation will examine male and female patterns of risk and use of mental health services for persons 18-64 years of age. Learning Objectives: Describe the relationships between mental health indicators and stress and the use of mental health services Keywords: Mental Health, Stress

Mental Health Guide Anxiety Disorders... Causes Treatments ... Site Index Related Resources Within UMM Dept. of Psychiatry Mental Health Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) What is post-traumatic stress disorder? Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating condition that often follows a terrifying physical or emotional event causing the person who survived the event to have persistent, frightening thoughts and memories, or flashbacks, of the ordeal. Persons with PTSD often feel chronically, emotionally numb. PTSD was first brought to public attention by war veterans and was once referred to as "shell shock" or "battle fatigue". The likelihood of developing PTSD depends on the severity and duration of the event, as well as the person's nearness to it. What triggers PTSD to develop? The event(s) that triggers PTSD may be: something that occurred in the person's life something that occurred in the life of someone close to him or her something the person witnessed Examples include: serious accidents (such as car or train wrecks) natural disasters (such as floods or earthquakes) man-made tragedies (such as bombings, a plane crash)

112. University Of Hull ::: Mental Health People who already suffer from anxiety, depression or other mental health problems, are more likely to experience difficulty coping with the stress of exams. http://www.hull.ac.uk/mentalhealth/exams.html

Exam Stress It is perfectly normal to experience symptoms of anxiety or stress before and during an exam. These feelings are caused by the release of adrenaline, which is the body's normal reaction to fear. The release of adrenaline causes a series of physiological reactions which can cause butterflies in the stomach, nausea, sweating, rapid breathing and heart rate, dry mouth and the need to go to the toilet urgently. These reactions are known as the fight/flight response (for more information see Anxiety leaflet). Once the exam is over, these feelings should subside quite quickly. When does exam stress become a problem? Some people experience a level of anxiety much greater than the normal reactions described above. The symptoms may also be prolonged, lasting for several hours or even days. Symptoms may be so severe that performance in an exam is significantly affected. People who already suffer from anxiety, depression or other mental health problems, are more likely to experience difficulty coping with the stress of exams. These difficulties can be further compounded by poor concentration as a result of their condition or medication. Excessive symptoms include: Panic attacks Vomitting and Diarrhea Morbid thoughts Inability to sleep during exam period Inability to perform in exam Excessive suspicion

Stress/Mental Health Issues Larry Chapman, University of Wisconsin Pat Eddy, Prairie Fire Rural Action Victor Fischer, The University of Iowa Paul Gunderson, National Farm Medicine Center Roger Hannan, Farm Resource Center Gayle Olson, IAMOH Lorenzo Sandoval, Proteus Employment Opportunities Ted Scharf, NIOSH Jim Taflinger, Farm Resource Center The Stress/Mental Health Issues work group discussed a number of factors and issues impacting both farm economics and mental health in terms of intermediate and long-term concerns. The group recognized and discussed at length the connectedness of economic, mental, and physical health. Building on the National Institute of Mental Health model, participants acted on the basic premise that the people affected by the flood are normal people who have been exposed to abnormal stress and identified four areas of concern: Stress Factors Special Needs Populations Intermediate Concerns Long-term Concerns Stress Factors A variety of factors differing from location to location make it necessary to individualize assistance approaches. For example, some areas remain underwater while the waters in other areas have nearly receded back to normal. The extent of damage within flooded areas also varies. In some cases, farmers lost their 1992 production, saw their 1993 crop waste in the field (or not get planted at all), and face potentially unplantable fields in the 1994 crop year. Estimates predict anywhere from 10 to 40 percent of Iowa farmers may lose or give up their farms in the next year. Weather, financial conditions, and assistance procedures lead to high levels of anger and anxiety.
