What is stress?

Stress also refers to psychological tension or pain caused by external influences, which makes people feel in poor mental state, pale, heavy-hearted, and even miserable.

What is stress? - -

Stress is not an imaginary disease, but a reaction of the body's "combat readiness", which is a reaction when we realize that a certain situation, someone or something is potentially threatening. When this happens, the brain secretes hormones including adrenaline. Adrenaline flows to all parts of the body through blood vessels. When these hormones flow to the heart, lungs and muscles, a special physiological reaction will occur. Symptoms of the "combat readiness" reaction: "Stress itself is not a bad thing" L Our heart began to beat faster.

Shortness of breath.

L muscle tension, ready for action

Vision becomes acute.

I play drums in my stomach.

Sharp thinking

I started sweating.

Unfortunately, because most of us don't need to fight or run away, our bodies are on red alert, and we can't relax and let go of this string. Tension and anxiety stay in the body and accumulate with everything that can cause tension, which eventually leads to the following results: your skin tells you: l rosacea, eczema and psoriasis-stress will aggravate all skin symptoms, l measles (rubella), skin herpes and sweat herpes. This is because your sweat glands secrete too much sweat and chemicals in your body. Too much dandruff-caused by constant inflammation of hair roots and hair follicles, or a by-product of stress.

Grey hair

Hair loss:

Most of us have100000 hairs, and we lose about1000 hairs every day. If one day you lose more hair than this (that is, the comb is full of hair), it may be caused by stress, because when your body is sick or injured, your hair stops growing. It often happens that when you go through a very stressful event, your hair stops growing, and after eight weeks, you will find that the number of hair falls off much more than usual. Hair will grow naturally again, but if you are worried, you can see your general practitioner for a check-up. What your stomach tells you is that abdominal growling is usually caused by stress:

Diarrhea. Anxiety is often the cause of diarrhea.

Allergic enteritis can also lead to irregular physiological cycles of diarrhea, pain, excessive waste gas and nausea. Worry and stress can make your physiological cycle off track or change the length of your physiological cycle, making it difficult to swallow? When something tense happens, when you swallow something, you will feel a lump in your throat, which is a common sign of mental stress.

Edit this paragraph | Some explanations about pressure 1 Back to the top, atmospheric pressure: the air column pressure on the earth's surface due to gravity. It is related to altitude, latitude and meteorological conditions.

2. Pressure difference: the relative difference between two pressures.

3. Absolute pressure: all pressures in the space where the medium (liquid, gas or steam) is located.

Absolute pressure is the pressure relative to zero pressure.

4. gauge pressure (relative pressure): if the difference between absolute pressure and atmospheric pressure is positive, then this positive value is gauge pressure, that is, gauge pressure = absolute pressure-atmospheric pressure > 0.

5. Negative pressure (vacuum gauge pressure): corresponding to "gauge pressure". If the difference between absolute pressure and atmospheric pressure is negative, then this negative value is negative pressure, that is, negative pressure = absolute pressure-atmospheric pressure < 0.

6. Static pressure: generally understood as "pressure that does not change with time, or pressure that changes slowly with time, that is, gauge pressure measured without being affected by the flow rate in the fluid".

7. Dynamic pressure: corresponding to "static pressure", "the pressure that changes rapidly with time, that is, dynamic pressure, refers to the kinetic energy of fluid in unit volume." Usually calculated as 1/2ππ2. Where ρ-fluid density; The speed of fluid movement. "

Edit this paragraph | Back to the top psychological point of view to see stress I. Types of stress:

(1) biological stressor:

This is a group of events that directly hinder and destroy individual survival and racial continuity.

Hunger, sexual deprivation, sleep deprivation, noise, temperature change.

(2) This is a group of internal and external events that directly hinder and destroy the normal spiritual needs of individuals.

Wrong cognition, bad experience, moral conflict, and bad personality psychological characteristics caused by long-term life experience (such as suggestibility, paranoia, jealousy, self-blame, regret, resentment) and so on.

Social and environmental pressures

1, purely social, such as major social changes, important interpersonal relationship breakdown (lovelorn, divorce), long-term family conflicts, war, imprisonment, etc.

2. Interpersonal adaptation problems (such as phobia, poor social communication, etc.) caused by one's own situation (such as personal psychological barriers and infectious diseases).

The stressors that cause psychological problems are not single, but mostly comprehensive.

Second, the experience of stress:

Psychological stress refers to people's inner conflicts and strong emotional experiences.

We live in a world full of contradictions Therefore, we will face all kinds of incompatible, mutually exclusive and even tit-for-tat things at any time. As a realistic reaction, the psychological society introduces them into our minds, forming a conflict between motivation and purpose in our inner world, so that in our hearts, we will form a state of being in a dilemma, at a loss and unable to choose. When a person is in such a situation, he will experience distress and anxiety. At this time, we say that he is experiencing pressure.

How many kinds of things are mutually exclusive in real life, and how many kinds of inner conflicts can people who come into contact with these things experience. It is difficult to classify conflicts according to their specific contents. If the specific content of the conflict is removed and its forms are classified, the situation will be much simpler and clearer. Psychologists divide inner conflicts into four categories:

1, two-way conflict

When two attractive things appear in front of us, but they are incompatible with each other. For example, there is a saying in China that "you can't have your cake and eat it", people's hearts will conflict. In this case, if there is emotional color, the more serious the pressure, the greater the pain. For example, a man is attracted to two women at the same time, and both women are attracted to men. Nowadays, morality allows only one choice. At this time, men are caught in the conflict between two trends and experience painful pressure.

2. Avoid conflicts

When a person wants to achieve an attractive goal, but it is extremely dangerous to achieve this goal, then he enters the realm of avoiding conflict. For example, if a person wants to get married, but marriage is bound to bear all kinds of responsibilities and lose some freedom, so there will always be psychological conflicts before marriage. Some people want to enter the stock market to speculate, because they can make a profit, but they have to take great risks. Therefore, people who enter the stock market often experience the pressure to avoid conflicts.

3. Avoid-avoid conflict

When a person is faced with two unfavorable situations, he experiences the pressure of avoiding-avoiding conflicts, for example, when he is caught between Scylla and Charybdis. When people encounter this situation, they often can't make a decision for a long time, and finally "resign themselves to fate" and fall into a passive position.

4. Double avoidance conflict Double avoidance conflict is caused by two possible choices. When the two options have their own advantages and disadvantages, people will fall into a double avoidance conflict when facing this situation. For example: a job opportunity has a higher salary, but the nature of the job has no development prospects; The salary of another job is not too high, but the nature of the job has a bright future. When a person is faced with this situation, no matter which job he chooses, there are advantages and disadvantages. Then there will be double avoidance conflict and the pressure of experiencing double avoidance conflict. Edit this paragraph | Go back to the top classification of modern male psychological stress 1. Continuous work stress: The normal working hours of ordinary people can't exceed 10 hour, which is the load of human health, but the work stress of urban adult men in China often lasts for more than 12 hour, resulting in serious psychological load. Second, the sense of loss: pessimism and disappointment in career, feelings and other aspects, and bruised self-confidence are lingering shadows hanging over urban men. Third, the competition is high: white-collar men now live in the fierce competition created by the times, and the sense of insecurity and instability has been eroding people's hearts. Fourth, family crisis: due to the inconsistent social values of family members, different feelings, likes and dislikes and other reasons. , may cause disharmony in the family environment. Even if there is no reason, the stress will be passed on to you through parents, wives and children. 5. Illness strikes: When you are under pressure, your physical condition can't flourish, and diseases may invade at any time, aggravating your anxiety, and then continuing to destroy your already fragile health, resulting in a vicious circle. 6. Excessive desire and pressure: If there are too many expectations for power and money, the heart and brain systems are always in a state of tension, forming a rhythm that is not in harmony with the normal physiological rhythm, leading to energy overdraft and premature aging. Edit this paragraph | How to relieve pressure by jacking 1. Focus for a few minutes every day. For example, the job now is to type this report well and put everything else behind you and not think about it. During the break from work, you can also take 20 minutes to relax, just take a walk, regardless of work, just focus on everything around you, such as what you see, hear, feel, smell and so on. 2. Speak or write out your concerns. Keep a diary or talk to friends, at least you won't feel lonely and helpless. American medical experts once divided some people with rheumatoid arthritis or asthma into several groups, and one group perfunctorily recorded what they did every day. The other group was asked to keep a diary carefully every day, including their fears and pains. As a result, the researchers found that the latter group rarely felt worried and anxious because of their own diseases. No matter how busy you are, you must exercise. The researchers found that after 30 minutes of treadmill exercise, the stress level of the subjects dropped by 25%. Go to the gym, walk for 30 minutes, or get up and do some stretching exercises. 4. Slow down your speech. Maybe your desk is full of documents to read every day, your right hand is answering the phone and your left hand is turning over the information. You have to deal with all kinds of people and say all kinds of things. Then you must remember to keep an optimistic attitude and slow down. 5. Don't take it too seriously. You might as well tell a little joke to your friends. Everyone laughed, the atmosphere became active and you relaxed. In fact, laughter can not only reduce tension, but also enhance the body's immunity. 6. Don't let negative voices surround you and drive you crazy. The boss may say, you can't do this or that. In fact, you have many advantages, but the boss didn't find them. 7. Let yourself completely relax for a day. Read a novel, sing a song, have a cup of tea, or just sit by the window and stare blankly. At this time, the key is your inner body odor, a kind of tranquility and a kind of relaxation. 8. Remember at least one good thing that happened today. No matter how hard and unhappy you are today, you should share a good thing with your family when you get home.
