Signals of Stress

You may be under too much stress if you…


…find yourself irritable or impatient with things you normally tolerate.

…have difficulty getting to sleep and feel exhausted when you awake.

…sense you are one step away from falling apart.

…suffer from frequent headaches or stomach pains.

…get distracted easily and have trouble concentrating.

…talk more negatively then usual.

…become forgetful and absentminded.

…don’t laugh as much as you used to.

…use alcohol, non-prescription drugs, or food to help you relax.

…postpone what is truly important, to accomplish what isn’t that important.
