Life has never been faster and jobs have never been more stressful than they are today. People have to perform more and more work under more difficult and more stressful conditions. Many people suffer from stress and the illness it can cause. But as this situation is becoming recognized, people shouldn't have to fear comments such as, 'He's had a nervous breakdown. Can't take the pressure, you know'. This is because more people are recognizing that stress is a natural reaction. It is a reaction of a person's body to pressure, either from the outside world or from the inner world of emotions and physical organs. We can't avoid stress. And we can't help ourselves, or others, until we know more about it. Not all stress is bad and perhaps if we understood it better we could make the most of it. The way our jobs affect the way we live and how we feel is very important. Most of us spend more of our walking hours at work than we do even with our families. In fact, we may spend over 100,000 hours at work in a lifetime. People do many different jobs, and are satisfied for different reasons. They also suffer from many different problems and stresses.
