Feeling
Stressed Out?
When your stomach chums,
your back and neck ache and
you’re overcome with fear, your
body and mind are reacting to
stress.
Feeling stressed is a normal
reaction. Everyone experiences it.
We’ve all had a bad day, week or
month. Everyone feels “bummed
out” at times.
Things usually get better. But,
when you’re feeling stressed out,
it may be hard to remember that
good times are ahead.
A low test score, a fight with a
friend or an argument with a
spouse can cause stressed-out
feelings.
You can react to stress in three
ways get angry, withdraw or
take charge.
Anger and aggression get atten

Aggressive actions, such as drink

ings, seek understanding and get
help from others. Withdrawing
from people creates isolation.
If you’re feeling stressed out,
talk to a friend. Listen to music to
relax, get some physical exercise
or spend time doing something
fun and enjoyable.
Although these techniques
don’t solve the problem, they can
help you feel better and make
decisions about the action you
need to resolve the stressful
situation.
To face the real issues of the
problem, talk with someone you
trust. It could be a coach, parent,
minister or good friend. Explain
the problem and work out the
options for solving it.
It’s possible to work out any
problem.

Self-Esteem
Research indicates that a
healthy self-esteem is a basic
ingredient to children’s growth
and development.
Adults who feel good about
themselves are usually more pro
ductive and have healthier person
al relationships. And, a healthy
self-esteem is rooted in early-life
experiences and relationships with
others.
