Stress is a common enough part of

living. Many of us experience it during exams, planning a wedding or any other

big occasion. It’s expected in normal doses however it can be amped up in some

instances and begin to take a physical and emotional toll on individuals.

Some tell-tale signs of stress we

need to look out for can be found below:

1. Overeating:

And it generally tends to be junk foods.

2. Venting:

Constantly talking about the issue to anyone willing to listen to the point

that people start avoiding conversations with you.

3. Drinking:

It’s no longer a social thing, or a glass of wine per day.

4. Lack of sleep:

Whether you’re avoiding it or you just can’t fall asleep, you’ve become an

insomniac.

5. Overanalysing

everything: You cannot seem to shut your mind off

6. Procrastination:

You put off things which you consider small tasks that can be done at another

time.

7. Rushing:

You are always on the go and there never seems to be enough time to get things

done.

8. Exercise:

You either channel all your energy into working out or you can’t find the

energy to work out at all.

9. Feeling overwhelmed:

Deadlines are looming and there are still no solutions in sight. It may be time

to admit that you cannot do it alone and call for reinforcements.
