Stress can often be caused by relationships between friends, parents, siblings, peers, or other relations. Although these conflicts may happen often, we generally misunderstand their cause. They often come from ourselves unconsciously doing action patterns or hidden conversations, not from other people's behaviour. Most people are also unsure about how to create a happy, long term relationship, which is another cause of stress. To succeed in our relationships, learn to stop unconscious relationship destroying patterns within us, like guessing what someone is thinking (about you) when is actually entirely different.
Stress associated with relationships can have major impacts on ourselves and the surrounding environment.
When we are stressed about our relationships, the other member will notice and wonder if they are causing the stress, or if they aren't liked any more.
We might doubt that the other person likes us, and unintentionally show what we are thinking, showing the other person what we are thinking, making them not like us because of our doubtfulness
We might start to worry that nobody loves us!
We could get depression from thinking that we have bad relationships when, in fact, we are just stressed
We might feel suicidal for the same reason
On the surrounding environment:
If we have children, we might upset them by arguing with our partner angrily, causing them to get stressed
If we argue loudly in public, other people, possibly friends, may make judgements on us, not liking us any longer.
Revealing that you have a stressful relationship to your friends might dis-encourage them from getting a relationship.
Other people you communicate with would notice your stressfulness and might think it was their fault, and feel ashamed
In our stressfulness, we might get cross with/insult someone when we normally wouldn't, offending them and destroying another valuable relationship.
Some coping and management strategies would be:
Define the problem specifically
Assume you are partly the cause of the problem
Identify specific conversations or action patterns within you that are prolonging the relationship issue
Try to stop the specific conversations or action patterns - create relationship enhancing contexts
Stay calm, don't over react
Discuss with the other member of the relationship what you are stressed about, so that they will understand and maybe help
Consider seeing a counsellor or psychologist
Enjoy yourself, laugh and tell jokes to your relationship partner
Ring up a stress helpline or access a stress website
If nothing else works, ignoring it should help it go away
There are various levels of support offered at an individual, community or government level. If you are feeling stressed, usually you would talk to someone trustworthy (a parent or close friend) and resolve the matter. If it is more stressful, you could visit a psychologist or counsellor, someone who is trained in helping people deal with problems including stress, and if it still continues, you could ring a stress helpline or use a website to find more information on dealing with stress.According to <http://www.newser.com/story/105446/and-the-worlds-most-stressed-people-are.html> , the majority of women are 8% more stressed than men. This is probably because men drink more alcohol than women (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7201874.stm), drinking over twice as much as women, meaning that men are possibly originally far more stressed than women, but prefer to hide in alcohol rather than face it. Men are also more secretive about problems, and generally keep them private, unlike women, who talk about them, consequently resolving them faster. This makes the support offered to an individual quite important, because if you don't talk about it, it won't get solved, and the more options there are, the more likely it is that one will get chosen. So the more useful the various levels of support offered at an individual, community or government level. If you are feeling stressed, feel free to ring 866-615-6464, or go online and access http://www.nimh.nih.gov/index.shtml, who will chat to you (on the phone), or provide useful information on dealing with stressful relationships if you are online. If they are not enough help, you could ring 800-273-8255, which is always open, or access it online at http://www.nmha.org. These websites and phone numbers will easily resolve any stressful relationships you have, and remove much of the stress from your life.
