How to prove that stress is work-related?
408077
Stress at work and no other place is one of the most difficult cases to prove. Because first and foremost, YOU CONTROL WHAT YOU FEEL. The boss didnt make you stressed, you made yourself stressed. People dont make you feel, you choose to feel. Get over yourself, you have no case, your best bet is to seek counseling for your inability to internalize your situations and your feeling of inadequacy, fo it is only when we feel inadequate that others "make us feel" something.

I believe stress is the source of 75 percent of all our problems and a major epidemic in people's lives. Finding ways to control stress is vital, because if you don't control stress, it will control you.\n\nIf you want to reduce your stress level and live a happier and healthier life, use the physical and emotional stress relief techniques outlined below. \n\nPhysical Relief \n - Say No\nThe pressure to perform in today's world is intense. As a result, people work long hours and take on much more than they can bear. They juggle multiple roles throughout the day and sacrifice sleep or personal time just so they can get everything done. Saying "no" to a demand is out of the question, resulting in increased stress, both at work and at home. \n\n - Listen to Your Body \nListening to your body helps you take control of your stress because you become aware of the signals your body gives you regarding comfort and discomfort.\n\n- Communicate With Your Heart\nYour heart has an important job, pumping 2,000 gallons of blood throughout your body each day. This merits the heart receiving your attention. To reduce emotional stress your heart needs encouragement, appreciation, and love.\n\n- Clear Out the Past Clutter\nJust as you do a spring cleaning of your house, you should also do a spring cleaning of your heart to wipe away the old memories and messages that are causing you stress. This is important, because the way we fell from moment to moment, the way we behave, and the actions we take are all conditioned to how we feel inside.

Your solution depends on what kind of work you are doing - and possibly factors from other areas of your life.\n\nIf you are tossing around 100lbs boxes 8-10 hours a day: Of Course you are tired!  And in this case the solution is likely found in your body's physical condition - build more muscles and/or have a check-up to see if there is a medical explanation.\n\nIf you are doing mentally challenging work (911 dispatch is one example) - your solution will be in your mind - Stress reduction techniques will help, as will short mental breaks through out the day. I take a book to work and spend 10-15 minutes with my door closed, feet up and reading to help me handle things. I also find that pictures of mentally calming places and music (very low volume). If it is really severe it may be a case of burn-out.  There are any number of websites on the net that can help you deal with that.\n\nOther things to consider: \n* Is this a sudden problem? Look at what changes have happened recently. \n* Are there lifestyle changes (lack of sleep, personal worries, relationship issues)? These will also affect the way you do your job.\n* Are you unhappy with your job? Often times being tired is really a reflection of feeling bored or unhappy at with something.

Stress is a part of life, actually it is important in some aspects, but like everything else moderation is the key. Take some deep breaths, shake your head back and forth, go for a day at the spa, a long hot bubble bath. Take a hard look at what is causing you to feel stressed and see how you can change your attitude so it isn't such an issue... Good luck to you and mellow out

Try and find the cause of your stress, and work on it, exercise helps a lot , along with a good nights sleep, and drinking enough water, in fact I think they have a book out titled STRESS AND WATER.\nIt is so hard today in our fast paced life styles, not to be stressed out. I could also say not to worry, but doesn't seem to fit with life styles today either.\nLaughter is so therapeutic, and is a good medicine.

Somebody made a hypothesis that says there is a relationship between thing A and thing B. A relationship does not say that A caused B or that B caused A, just that knowing about the state of A tells you something about the state of B. \n\nFor example, I could hypothesize that there is a relationship between people's stress levels and their body temperatures, but not be able to say that running a fever is the result of or the cause of stress.

Well, although your job seemed to be "stressful", it sounds like you enjoyed it. You probably felt very useful; maybe even essential for the smooth functioning of the office. Now, because of your injury, you can't seem to do the same things you used to, so you feel a bit depressed, because you may not feel as though you're playing a useful role.\n\nPerhaps, if your condition allows it, you could have your own business being an "organizer" -- you know, like, organizing people's closets, or their own home-office files, or other things that need organizing, but you won't have to do a lot of physical work that may strain your back / neck. Use your mind! \n\nIronically, some people feel "less stressed", when they're working at something useful and productive, even if it is "fast-paced". Some stress is caused, when we feel life is passing us by....\n\nYou have more emotional strength than you probably realize. You are a thoughtful and caring person -- try to brainstorm, and think about how you might use your talents!

That's life.  It's good that you don't participate in the slander, though.  Mental stress is all a part of work.  The best thing to do, is to do your job and ignore the clowns.

I call this bullying, especially the bits about not giving you your work and shouting at you in front of other people.  Is there a personnel department or union you can see about this?  If not, I suggest you look for another job before you get symptoms of stress.

Some people are born more suseptable to stress than others. \nOthers, seem to become stressed from problems they are now facing.  \n\nI would say that people in the corporate world, people in bad relationships, teens, parents of teens, and working moms with infants have a lot to stress over.  Not to mention people who are prone to anxiousness to start with.\n\nExercise is a good stress reliever--even walking can help.  Punching something like a pillow (not a person or wall) can help.  In my family we yell and scream (but do not hit).\n\nI understand that B vitamins help--but check to see which ones and how much of each to take.
