Causes of Stress

According to Thomas H. Holmes and Richard H. Rahe, from the University of Washington, the main causes of stress arise due to the external environment. They studied the connection between certain important life events and illnesses.  A list of the main reasons for stress in society was compiled as a part of that study. The reviewed list of 63 triggers includes:

• • Financial Problems

    This is the #1 source of stress today. Financial matters top the list of stressors. Debts pile up. Credit Card payments, mortgage installments, education costs, mounting expenditure on health concerns. Lack of money prevents you and your family from doing what you want to do.

• • Workplace Stress

    Loss of a job may be a worry.

    Unfair treatment or bullying by your superior may be a concern.

    You may be under stress because you don’t know what will happen now that the pandemic is subsiding.

    6 key stress factors include:

    • Demands for the job
    • Management staff control over how you do your work
    • Lack of support or feedback from colleagues and superiors
    • Your relationship with your co-workers
    • Lack of training or understanding of your responsibilities at work
    • Workplace and technological changes

• • Personal Stress

    A top cause of stress is personal concerns. We all have an innate desire for control over our own life.  When control is weak or missing in any given area we experience stress.

    To some, a lack of control over their own time is a leading cause of stress. We want to decide when we do tasks around the home, or at work.

    Some are stressed from not enough sleep, having no time to relax, and having no time to discuss some nagging problems.

    Personal change of any kind can be a cause of stress. Legal proceedings may cause stress. Bad habits plague us. Alternatively, we may be going through any kind of change.

    The ebb and flow of family life are filled with stress. Arguments may erupt with a spouse or other family members. Parents divorce. Children marry. A child may move out or an aging parent may move in. A sick family member, a serious injury, pregnancy, miscarriage, or abortion all cause stress. Family changes of other kinds bring stress, too. Adoption, relocation, and job changes for just one family member can cause stress for all.

• Health Stress

  • Stress is linked to obesity, and a desire to lose weight.
  • For some, stress is a personal bad habit that affects health and must be changed.  Drinking excessively, or smoking and doing other drugs may be a problem.
  • Actually, a leading cause of stress for many people is illness or injury.
  • Incontinence can be an ongoing concern.
  • Personal health is more or less stressful according to the degree of seriousness and our personal outlook on health.
