Stress is a fact of life, wherever you are and whatever you are doing. You cannot avoid
stress, but you can learn to manage it so it doesn’t manage you.
Changes in our lives—such as going to college, getting married, changing jobs,
or illness—are frequent sources of stress. Keep in mind that changes that cause stress
can also benefit you. Moving away from home to attend college, for example, creates
personal-development opportunities—new challenges, friends, and living
arrangements.
That is why it’s important to know yourself and carefully consider the
causes of stress. Learning to do this takes time, and although you cannot avoid stress,
the good news is that you can minimize the harmful effects of stress, such as
depression or hypertension.
The key is to develop an awareness of how you interpret,
and react to, circumstances. This awareness will help you develop coping techniques
for managing stress.
