Stress is at an all-time high for many of my clients right now. Some talk about how the coronavirus has taken away social supports, financial stability, and has resulted in health anxiety. Others yet, cite politics. Some talk about the strain on their current relationships due to changes in the way they work and the amount of time they are spending together. Whatever it maybe, I have heard this a lot lately, “Shaheen, I am so stressed out!”
So, what exactly is stress? Stress has two components, the psychological perception of pressure due to an external factor and our body’s response to it. Our mind reacts to stress as an external threat. This means that we will generally have one or a combination of the following reactions to stress: fight, flight, and freeze.
