What is psychological stress? Please click what is the essence of psychological stress? Let's review it.
In the face of pressure, the first thing we should do is to correctly understand the pressure.
As described in the story of the primitive man, if the primitive man still doesn't feel the pressure when the brown bear approaches, he can only do nothing.
So for us, stress is a kind of warning and reminder, which has a very positive effect.
Imagine that if a person is in a stress-free living environment for a long time, then his life is meaningless and lacks a sense of accomplishment and value.
Stress makes us think about what our values are and what the meaning of life is. Standing on such a level, we can look at the current pressure from a macro and long-term perspective and face it with a more detached attitude.
It should be said that all people who exist in the world will face all kinds of pressures, which is the task entrusted to us by life, and everyone feels different intensity of pressure, which has a great relationship with everyone's personality characteristics and tenacity.
The second step is to face the pressure.
As mentioned earlier, stress can be divided into acute stress and chronic stress. Acute stress is usually caused by unexpected events, so it is generally something that can be seen clearly. There are usually these methods to deal with such pressure.
Lower your goal Many people are too eager for something and lack endurance and endurance. They suddenly made a high goal and plan, hoping to achieve it in a short time. This kind of goal beyond one's own limit usually brings great pressure to people.
For example, a person with a strong desire to lose weight, one day, he made up his mind to lose weight and set the goal of 1 month, 10 kg. This is a plan that almost exceeds the limit of human body, and he needs considerable perseverance to realize it. You can imagine how much pressure he will bear this month.
Under this great psychological pressure, the process is quite difficult, the goal is often difficult to achieve, and he will also experience a strong sense of frustration because he gives up halfway.
If you can think calmly and make a more detailed plan, such as making a plan to lose weight 1 kg a week, the pressure will be much less and the goal will be easier to achieve.
It is an effective way to reduce the pressure by correctly evaluating the target and formulating a stable and feasible implementation plan.
In another case, due to irresistible external emergencies, the original goal suddenly becomes difficult to complete.
. For example, three tasks were originally planned to be completed today, and suddenly a customer came to visit, which took two more hours, which led to the failure to complete the originally planned tasks. At this time, it is an option to reduce the pressure by lowering the goal in time and giving yourself flexible space.
2, strive to achieve the goal
When there is no problem after the goal evaluation, there will also be pressure in the process of achieving the goal.
The stress in this process is usually caused by procrastination.
The goal is always there, but when you need to start action every day, you always have to overcome many psychological obstacles. From the starting point to the end point, it takes a tedious and laborious process, and the pressure brought by this process will always exist in the process of achieving the goal.
If you can't break through this pressure, you will always be stuck.
The only way to relieve the process pressure of climbing mountains and overcoming many difficulties is to act now. Turn the energy internal friction caused by stress into a battle with the actual work, and from the moment you start to act, the psychological pressure will be relieved a lot.
Another kind of pressure is that there are too many things at hand and I don't know where to start. In this case, we should also turn the pressure into action, and do the most stressful and unwilling things, and the pressure will be reduced by more than half.
Immediate action is a quick solution to stress.
3. Substitution pressure
Stress is a psychological conflict, a conflict between the real self and the ideal self. This kind of conflict also carries considerable psychological energy. In addition to adjusting the target and taking immediate action to release it, it can also be replaced by conflicting activities.
For example, some competitive sports activities, such as football and basketball, can release the psychological energy accumulated by other pressures in this tangible competitive conflict.
The role of human beings in inventing these competitive sports activities at the psychological level is to channel inner conflicts through controllable ways such as games and competitions.
Although the fans didn't play football and games, just watching the live broadcast of the game has already involved themselves in the conflict of the game, which can also relieve the pressure.
Therefore, before the exam, adults face the intense work rhythm and play a few ball games, which is helpful to enhance the pressure-bearing ability.
Step 4 express stress
For some chronic pressures, interpersonal pressures and group pressures, we can't set immediate goals for these pressures, but they affect our lives all the time.
If you have a lot of subtle and slight stress, it has seriously invaded your life, remember to indulge in it. Try to avoid locking the pressure in your heart and create an outward exit.
To pour out one's pressure and pain to a trustworthy person, or to express it in artistic ways such as painting, music and dancing, can lead the pressure to the outside world to a certain extent.
For example, a high school student is on the verge of depression. She has a hobby, which is writing. So she saved herself from emotional collapse by writing novels and acting dramas.
What needs to be psychologically prepared is that the formation of this chronic stress is a long-term process and it takes a relatively long time to resolve it.
The third step is to learn to ask for help.
If none of the above methods can eliminate the sense of suffocation in life, then you need to keep a clear consciousness at this time, and there will always be someone to help you when you are in trouble. Asking for help in time is also an essential skill in life.
When the pressure is so great that you are almost overwhelmed, just reading books and other ways will have little effect, and sometimes it is easy to put the truth in the book on yourself at will. This way of guessing is even worse for mental health.
If you can't handle stress, you can find a professional psychological counselor or an expert who knows how to manage emotions, and help you analyze it from scratch according to the actual situation, sort out the root causes of stress, enhance your sense of strength, improve your personality and change your view of stress.
