 | I get regular questions from my readers on how to best manage stress. Sometimes they come through reader response articles, email, or posts via the Facebook Page on Stress Management, and I often turn them into FAQ articles so I can provide thorough answers. Because many people have the same questions, this newsletter brings a few recent questions from readers, with links to answers. I've also included a quiz, so you can provide answers of your own! (If you want to provide advice to other readers on a variety of topics, see these articles.) Have a fantastic week! -Elizabeth | |
Q: How Can I Cope With the Stresses of Motherhood and More?
One reader asks: "I have 4 children ages 15 to 8, and I'm so stressed I could scream...in fact, I do...a lot. I'm in the beginning of the end of a 3-year relationship as well. Yelling and swearing is how I cope. I moved to a new state and have no friends. I hate that I don't have ways to cope. I could lock myself up in my room, but then I would miss time with my kids...and what's worse is I can see the same anger in my kids. How can I change this?" Read my answer
| Q: How Can I Reduce The Stress Of Chronic Illness?
A reader asks: "What about people with stress and chronic illness? I have chronic pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, and a toddler. How can I cope with the regular stresses of motherhood as well as the stress of my chronic illness?" Read my answer
| Q: What Can Make Me Happy?
One reader asks: "Sometimes life gets so stressful, I have a hard time knowing what will make me happy. When I think of everything I have to do, and all the demands on my time and energy, it's hard to find time to do things that will make me happy, and I don't always have the ability to get into a good mood when I've had a bad day. What should I do? Can you help me figure out what will make me happy?" Read my answer.

When dealing with stress, the more you understand, the better, so it's best to have all the facts so you can maximize your health. This quiz allows you to test your knowledge about stress and increase your understanding at the same time by taking this quiz about stress myths. At the end of the quiz, you'll not only find your score, but you'll be directed to additional information about the questions you missed. (Or take a stress personality test.)
