Stress

?% | 1

Man, i hate stress. That feeling that wields the power to completely control your life. It surrounds you and pulls you down, threating and taunting you. And you submit. You are entirely at its command. You fall soundelssly into a heap on the ground where you will never rise from again.

It consumes you.

With every struggle you sink deeper, and shrink until you feel so small and insignificant you wonder whether the stress is worth it all. You find yourself thinking that it's really not worthwhile. And with this thought the stress towers above you, completely indiferent to your destruction. But you are destroyed nonetheless.

The first thing stress destroys is your ability not to destroy yourself.

Re: Stress

For a phych class I wrote a paper about stress. 10 Pages. At the end of the paper I finally concluded with something like this.

Now while stress causes so many problems. It is also proven that it is needed. It defines our character and how we handel problems. It weeds out bad leaders from the good. But most importantly, with all its downsides, it makes like interesting. If you can view it in the right light, it may even give a reason to live for those that are depressed. Don't look at it like a problem, look at it like a challenge. Overcomming challenges is one of most enjoyable parts in life.

Or something, but better thoughtout.
Its been 2 years.
