Stress can do a lot to people and affects our mental and physical health. People who are stressed are more irritable than those who aren't. They also suffer insomnia, become forgetful, and are less capable of concentrating. Stress can be a part of our daily life and when accumulated, results are not always good.
What is the best advice you can give to people who are stressed?

@allknowing You're right. I understand that you are saying not all illness can be cured so the option is to endure it.

Good advice! That is why people get so stressed sometimes because they demand too much.

like what Pinoy say:" kalma ka lang". (keep calm). i would suggest to do the deep breathing exercises and then rethink about what depresses her/him

Yeah, deep breathing helps all the time. And being calm makes you think better, too.

@neelia_lyn i agree. it is also a way to reduce the carbon dioxide off in our body if we do the pursed-lip breathing.

If the pressure is too great, you can take part in a sport. This will relieve the pressure.

That's helpful, too. I play badminton with friends or daughter to relieve the stress.

I agree. Talking to others is a big relief because the stress may become a depression and it's scary. Thank you.

Yes, deep breathing relaxes the tension we feel when we're stressed.

Well. As we all know that Stress can`t be prevented but we can cope up with it. It`s really hard to give an advice to people having it especially when you don`t know what caused it. I guess, a good counceling where the person can openly discuss all about it and release it all out and from there you can give some good advice but can never be general

The usual advise I guess. "Relax..." I guess it works as simple as it sounds.

That's scary. I'm sure you would wake up at the slightest sound you'd hear during the night. Take care and always pray.
