Self Destruction with Stress

We tend to become frantic when too many demands are placed on us at one time. Our brains reach overload, our thoughts become confused with too many responsibilities, deadlines, opinions, and alternatives. We are being pulled in too many directions at one time and asked to complete too many tasks. When you don’t have the knowledge and abilities to manage and overcome these obstacles you feel overwhelming anxiety.

A habit is an acquired pattern of behavior that often occurs automatically, without being provoked by thought. This occurs with repetitive behavior over a length of time. Because of this automatic response, you may not be consciously aware that you are displaying negative behavior or having negative thoughts until your focus is directed to this area of your life.

Stress is a repetitive disorder that many develop crutches for as an attempt to find relief. Some turn to drinking, eating, smoking, drugs etc. to find an escape from reality. Take the crutch of drinking alcohol as an example - when you are stressed you drink - the alcohol as a reaction will cause stress as an after effect and when feeling stressed you drink. The same may be said for eating, smoking, drugs etc. The cycle continues and will extend into every part of your life having a domino effect until self destruction is achieved.

We all experience stress in our busy lifestyles but it is how we react to this stress that is the difference between being a balanced individual or merely surviving life.

When stress impacts your life it can affect every area.
