Dear Dr.Mimi – Stressed Out

, , , ,

Dear Dr. Mimi,
My work is stressful!!! I work to stay calm, but sometimes the pressure is so great that I want to explode! Help!!!
—Stressed Out

Dear Stressed Out,
Stress can accumulate in the workplace, and it is not fun. Identify the specific source of your stress, and before it gets unbearable, do some stress reduction exercises, like deep breathing or getting up and taking a short walk. The worst thing you can do is let stress pile up without it being addressed. I also recommend seeking professional help. Your mental health is as important as your physical health, and it needs to improve.
