Understanding and Managing Stress

May 15, 2025by admin19

Stress is a normal part of life — but when it becomes overwhelming or persistent, it can take
a serious toll on your mental and physical health. At  Dr. Psycho, we understand how
modern life can often feel like a pressure cooker, constantly demanding more of your time,
energy, and emotional bandwidth.

What Is Stress, Really?

Stress is your body’s natural response to any demand or threat. It can be triggered by external
factors like work pressure, academic challenges, family issues, or even positive events like
getting married or starting a new job. Internally, stress might arise from negative self-talk,
perfectionism, or past trauma.

There are two main types of stress:

• Acute Stress – short-term stress that passes quickly (e.g., during an exam or
argument).
• Chronic Stress – ongoing stress that doesn’t go away easily and can affect your
overall health.

How Does Stress Affect You?

Stress doesn’t just live in the mind — it impacts your body too. You might notice:

• Constant worry or racing thoughts
• Headaches, muscle tension, or fatigue
• Difficulty sleeping or oversleeping
• Irritability or mood swings
• Weakened immune system
• Increased heart rate and blood pressure

Unchecked stress can lead to anxiety, burnout, and even physical conditions like high blood
pressure, heart disease, or gastrointestinal problems.

When to Seek Help

You should seek professional help if stress:

• Feels constant or unmanageable
• Disrupts your sleep or eating habits
• Affects your job, relationships, or daily routine
• Makes you feel hopeless or out of control

At  Dr. Psycho, we offer a safe, understanding space to explore the root causes of your
stress and build better coping strategies. Therapy can help you regain control, improve your
emotional regulation, and prevent stress from taking over your life.

How We Can Help

We use an integrative approach that includes:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – to challenge negative thought patterns
• Mindfulness & Relaxation Techniques – to reduce tension and improve focus
• Time Management & Lifestyle Coaching – to set healthy boundaries
• Customized Stress-Relief Plans – designed around your unique life and goals

You Don’t Have to Go Through This Alone

Remember, stress is a sign — not a weakness. It’s your mind’s way of telling you it needs
support. If you’re feeling weighed down, we’re here to lighten the load.
