Notes

Make a note of the problems that need to be dealt with - find solutions and plan how to deal with each one. Then set priorities - tackle them one at a time - the most important first

Don't take on too much - be realistic about what you can and cannot handle and don't be afraid to say "no"

Communicate with others - share your feelings with someone you trust

If possible plan a change of scenary and day to day routine - try to take a short break occasionally

If work is a part of the problem try and establish the aspects causing stress and how they might be dealt with (eg with delegation, saying "no", getting support, changing jobs)

Plan your time and don't forget to include breaks. Making time for relaxation and leisure activities on a regular basis (and sticking to it) is important

Exercise regularly - aim for at least 15 minutes a day

Find out more about for example relaxation techniques and stress-free diets and incorporate these into your planned lifestyle changes

Finally, do seek help through your family doctor if you feel it is necessary
