I would like to know what defines "severe emotional stress"? I also wondering about what some consequenses can be for people who have experienced emotional stress. I would be happy if your answer mainly contains your own knowledge or experience rather than web info. The only case if you want t o recomend something from the internet would be "stories".
Thanks a lot!

This article tells about body responses.

What physiological response(s) to stress occur beyond irritability, hypervigilance, bradypnea, tachycardia, insomnia, intense distress, intrusive thoughts, thought suppression, panic attacks, syncope, fasciculations, and spontaneous diarrhea?

Additionally, what is this degree of stress properly titled, and what is the term for the following stage?

The degree is PHD or post hole digger- they dont know– heres an example-

Counseling- The bible says man’s wisdom is folly. Here’s some advice recently given to a cutter. This info really can apply to any so called mental problem just change the name below.

1. "You don’t handle criticism well" "You need to work on that"– wow
2. "Your mom is just frustrated"- no mention of abuse of course.
3. "Youre such a drama queen"– said by thereapist to her.

Here we have a mom paying for the counseling, and the counselor just agrees with the mom to keep the money going. This is a mom who is verbally abusive- I knew about abuse going on The counselor just won’t help this child.

When your parents are paying you often won’t get real help. You will get total nonsense and pysco babble from secular counselors. Focusing on cutting is not the way to help.

Hurting people hurt others. You have to realize the parent hurting you has low self esteem and needs to control you. Its "their" problem. Any words spoken that are not uplifting are really abuse even if the words have some truth to them. Being sent to counselors can be a form of control. They get an "expert" to "agree" with them. Read about verbal abuse.

One factor common to most people who self-injure is invalidation which is abuse. They were taught at an early age that their interpretations of feelings were wrong. They learned that feelings weren’t allowed. They may have been punished for expressing feelings or ridiculed.

1. Read "emotional abuse" Read about 40 sites- Abuse causes depression.
2. Google "Deliverance Prayers"- stops sadness.
3. Google "Sinners Prayers"- makes a path to God
4. Google sites about "Bullying".
5. Learn the cause of cutting dont focus on how much you cut or how you need to stop.

Google sinners prayers and deliverance prayers

I’ve been kind of stressed lately, and I get anxiety stomach aches when I get stressed, so I was wondering some quick and effienct ways to deal with stress?
Thanxx.

Take deep breaths and calm your mind. Don’t let any thoughts come in. You might look into meditating.

Listen to some music that you can relate to. Sing along. Play an instrument. Draw something. Exercise. Play with a kitten. Often when you are thinking about too many things, the simple solution is too tune all that out and just focus on nothing or on one little thing. It takes your mind off of any worries you have, at least for a little while, and allows you to let some happiness and calmness come into your mind.

After taking a break for awhile, keep yourself calm and think about the things that are making you anxious. Think about why they make you feel the way they do and how you can deal with that. If you’ve got alot of things to get done, write them down. Then re-organize by priority. Then go a step further and plan out each part of each thing you need to do. Say what you will do and when you will do it. If you know what you should get done each day, and know that all of your important things will get done before or when they need to be done, you’ll feel calmer and more peaceful.

Don’t forget to just relax every once in awhile. You need to find time each day to do something relaxing. Also, getting enough sleep and a healthy diet will help. You’ll be able to think more clearly which will definitely help with your feelings.

Before people answer, I truly am very aware that the best approach is to simply reduce anxiety and stress. Sometimes though it’s nice to have a little helping hand, as stress hormones like cortisol can be harmful to the body. I was just wondering what natural remedies are best at balancing cortisol

I heard Rhodiola Rosea, Ashwaganha and Reishi Mushroom are good but I don’t really know, and would love some opinions!

Thanks guys
The natural and most effective way is to take DHEA, this is a hormonal precursor made by the adrenal glands, but over time less and less is produced. It is the direct antagonist in the body to cortisol. DHEA can be purchased otc in any supplement store, start with 25mg daily and work up gradually to to 100mg a day.

I have an example question im so stuck on at the moment which is The cross seccion of a beam is a solid circle of radius 116 mm. The section is subject to a positive bending moment M of 26 kNm. Determine the stress in N/mm2 (+ tension, - compression) at point A situated at the top of the section?

Under elastic deformation in one dimension, the equation reduces to
s=(M/I)y
s is normal stress due to bending
I is the second moment
y is the perpendicular distance to the centroid axis

Wiki shows how to do this using Euler-Bernoulli

I had too minor projects, but are a great amount together. Im half way through it and im full of stress, how do i relieve some to continue my projects?

Take a break and recognize how much work you already completed. Have a snack. Come back and continue working on the projects. Tell yourself that you are closer to being done. The more you focus on what you’re doing, the sooner you will finish and be able to do something you enjoy. Good Luck on your two projects.

I am concerned because a lot of my family are under a lot of stress and pressure at the moment and have been for a while, some of them for nearly their whole life. I would like to know if their life expectancy will be lower?

It has been proven over and over again, it is not necessarily the amount of stress in your life that causes your life expectancy to be shortened, but HOW YOU MANAGE THE STRESS. There are two basic types of stress. The external stress you have little or no control over and the self inflicted type of stress that is due to your mental attitude and your diet that can cause stress that will create long term life expectancy issues. To put a number on that is not easy due to all the variables.

People who eat lots of carbs, sugar, low fat diets, and incorrect fats for instance, put a tremendous stress on their bodies. Cortisol is the stress hormone. It is made in the Adrenal glands and is what our primitive ancestors used in times when lots of muscle action was necessary to avoid danger. We were never designed to make cortisol (stress hormone) the way we are now.

So how you manage stress, no matter how much, will determine your answer.

good luck to you

I have recently been fired from work and I am really worried about money.
I am a 27 year old man and yet my only option now will be to borrow money from my mum, and I am dreading asking her.
I am so stressed and ashamed about having to do this. It feels horrible.
Obviously I am looking for work, but I don’t know how I am going to get through this financial stress.

Three other lifeguards and i have to back board someone yesterday. We are all dealing with the stress and after shock from that.Myself and another lifeguard have not been able to sleep and have been very sick.We all have talked to our boss and tried not to think about it.What are some good ways to help with that just encase it happens again.Should we keep guarding or go home for the day?What could we do?

If it was a successful rescue, remind yourselves of this. You were there and you responded correctly. This was a very traumatic situation. It’s normal to feel the way you do. It’s probably not very likely this will happen again so soon. As time passes you will gradually be able to settle down. You are a special person looking out for the safety of others.

We’re doing a research on stress levels experienced by college students. Level of stress is our variable. So far, I haven’t found a consistent view on levels of stress yet. It seems like different researchers and authors have identified their own levels of stress for their respective population. Although there are established ways on measuring stress, there are a few resources on levels of stress. Can you identify some and cite your resources? Thanks!

The best answer I can give you is that the levels are unimportant because the closer the matter is to your heart the more it frazzles you. Take it from me, a 55 yr old woman, who worked in state tax collection for years (which carries a very high level of stress), Single mother with 3 grown sons with child custody problems ( very high level of stress), has alzheimer’s disease now (I guess I blew a gasket), seizures and esophageal erosion, and is now disabled. If i didn’t have interaction with other people I wouldn’t have any stress at all.
Stress as is depression, is brought about via outside influence for me. As a woman my family is the most important thing in my life. If I am being pushed to achieve a goal at work or to exceed an amount set my my employer, We had a certain goal amount to reach in collections. If you didn’t reach that goal your job was in jeopardy, so there was this constant push. Thus, a lot of stress to the point I would vomit then it went to vomiting blood, then finally esophageal erosion. This directly affected my being able to support my family. Doing a really good job was of the utmost importance. Therefore, I had to react to it as I would a matter of the heart. Anything that has repercussions that affect the heart will be like a blow to the stomach.
Stress level experienced by college students depends on their desire to succeed. There is always going to be the young immature students that are going to college because their parents want them to but, they really don’t know yet what they really want to do in life. Mom and dad are the ones that have always worried about that stuff. Then there is going to be the underachievers that have got to do better but, have some kind of mental block thus, they just can’t seem to get there. Then there are the ones who just seem top skate through effortlessly. You have to look at the circumstances behind the scene to really get the jest of the stress level. All you really need to do is to meditate and walk in their shoes. You will get the answer.
