If you find you are consistently stressed and feel overwhelmed, seek out professional help. You need to learn how to cope differently than you are currently coping. You need to learn coping tools to help you manage through life’s challenges both personally and professionally.

There is no easy answer. Some people cope well and others do not. If you are someone always feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders, there are professionals that can work with you. Stress that is poorly managed can cause illness. If you currently have a benefits package, speak with your Human Resource team to get some options. If you are unemployed, ask your family Physician for a referral to the correct professional.
