Recognize Your Limits to Avoid the Stress Spiral
Stress can lead individuals down unhealthy paths, particularly when faced with overwhelming situations. Different people react to stress in unique ways, often influenced by their backgrounds. For instance, some may respond by overworking to regain control, but this can exacerbate stress and lead to a downward spiral. It’s essential to establish boundaries and declare a finish line to prevent overcommitment. Finding balance is key; while it’s productive to engage in work, prioritizing mental health and recognizing when to step back is crucial for sustainable well-being.
