Stress: The Lazy Person’s Guide!

The key issue here is how you adapt to that change or how you perceive an event. If you can adjust well to the circumstances in your life, stress isn’t a problem. It is when you can’t adjust, or don’t want to adjust, that stress causes problems. In short, it’s when stress becomes distress that you start to feel you can’t cope.

Relationships are all about give and take. If a relationship is not making you feel good, and you have tried compromise and communication, consider what changes you should make. We could discuss this at length, but at the end of the day you have a choice: you can avoid the person who makes you feel bad about yourself. Or you can change your attitude towards that person, if you can’t avoid them, by reminding yourself that no-one can make you feel inferior without your consent. Other people do not make you feel bad unless you allow them to make you feel bad.
