what effects stress has on people, and how can stress be alleviated.
Stress has many causes, and these causes are most prevalent in
our modern society. Three of the most common causes of stress
involve events that occur in our lives, our jobs and careers, and our
lifestyles in general.
Major life events such as births, deaths, moves, marriages,
divorces and all endings or beginnings can cause much major stress
(Nelson 70). Some drastic changes happen periodically in life that
measure heavily on the stress scale (71). When family members or
friends are seriously ill or have died, those close feel tremendous
stress. Divorce, usually a highly charged emotional event, can be a
major stress producer (72). Even happy events can cause a great deal
of stress. A birth of a child brings major changes into the parents’
lives and creates long term stress (Henson 74). Marriage brings
changes to many lives and stresses not only the bride and groom, but
parents, family members and friends as well (75). Major life events can

take a toll on our health just as our daily involvement in our jobs.
Minor and major stresses are tied to jobs, job related and careers
(Henson 76). Work demands the time and effort which cause stress on
everyone’s life. The every day grind of work, overtime, and ongoing
projects stress us even when we are not at the work place (77).
Technology promised to make work easier, but it has actually created
more work and stress because work can now be performed from
anywhere at anytime (78). People who work are also stressed by the
prospects of unemployment. Fear of losing a job and the income
needed to live can be a constant form of stress (Nelson 77). Even a
promotion causes stress with the change and new expectations that
follow (78). Ironically, when away from work, we are still under stress
caused by the way we live in a modern society.
Modern life styles add a great deal more stress to Americans’ lives.
Working parents find less time for family, household, and social
activities (Stevens 87). Whether both parents work or a single parent

struggles to get by, family responsibilities suffer, and this neglect
weighs heavily on the parent (88). Stress comes when parents cannot
find time for personal enjoyment (89). Additionally, “our consumer
society adds greatly to financial stress and worry” (Mason Interview).
When people are constantly bombarded with ads, they associate
things with happiness; they always want more. The pursuit of more
can lead to debt which in turn leads to long-term stress (Mason
Interview). Along with life events and jobs, our modern lifestyle adds
to stress with all its negative consequences. The effects stress has on our lives is far more harmful then one
would imagine. Although hard to detect, stress negatively effects our
physical health, psychological well-being and personal relationships.
