DEALING WITH STRESS

TASK 1 Identify five situations that could contribute to stress in a person’s life.

§ Conflict between work and family § Too many work tasks with not enough time to complete them § Medical or health related issues § Work demands § A lack of free time to relax § Divorce § Death of a loved one § Moving house § Building a house or renovating

TASK 2 Provide a brief description and/or example of each of the following personal stress indicators:

Personal stress indicators Description

Difficulty dealing with change

A person who has lost a loved once, is going through a divorce or change of career may be exhibiting signs such as depression, anxiety, sadness, a loss of motivation and a lack of patience or irritability. These are key personal stress indicators of a person having difficulty dealing with change.

Increased anxiety

A person may experience increased anxiety when faced with new situations, or situations out of ordinary such as a crisis at work, family illness and other stressful situations. Increase anxiety can be identified by a surge of overwhelming panic, trembling or shaking, feeling like you are losing control or going crazy, heart palpitations or chest pain and hot flashes or chills.

Sleep problems

A person may experience sleep problems if they are stressed, suffering from anxiety or depression or other medical condition. Sleep problems causes fatigue during the day which can directly affect a persons ability to work productively and function. This could lead to accidents and mistakes.

üT1.2



Conflict

Conflict is a disagreement or contest between two parties or people, each with opposing needs, ideas, beliefs, values or goals. When conflict occurs it needs to be dealt with so that both parties (people) can move on from the situation and can continue to work/interact productively.

Ill health

Ill health sign and symptoms will vary depending on the conditions that a person has. Ill health can be extremely stressful for the person who is unwell as well as their family and friends. A person who is dealing with stress as a result of ill health may seem withdrawn, anxious, depressed and show a lack a motivation and patience.

Intoxication/drugs and alcohol dependency

A person suffering from drug and alcohol dependency may exhibit signs such as unexplained changes in personality or attitude, sudden mood swings, irritability, or angry outbursts, a lack of motivation or care of things that used to matter. It is important to find the cause of their dependency as most often dependency is caused by stressful life events such as the loss of a loves one.

§ Go and pamper yourself - get a massage, pedicure, manicure, facial etc § Regular exercise or physical activity – eg: go for a walk, run etc. § Share your feelings with another person – talk about what is stressing you. § Go and pamper yourself – get a massage, facial, pedicure etc. § Take a long bath. § Take time out to read a book § Watch a movie § Try some relaxation techniques or breathing exercises. § Play with a pet or take them for a walk. § Socialise with a friend, meet for coffee or dinner etc. Or phone them. § Make sure you are getting enough sleep. § Cook a healthy meal § Listen to music
