• Stress is defined as the emotional and physical reaction of your body to any change. 

• At any given moment you have a good, but limited, stress-bearing capacity. 

• It is adequate to handle a normal life’s stress quite comfortably. 

• It means that you are capable of handling your day-to-day stress easily. 

• The problem arises when you want to achieve too much, too soon, and too fast. 

• Certainly, you can do that also. 

• But not at the level of your current stress-bearing capacity.

• Therefore, it’s most important for you to first increase your stress-bearing capacity to the next level. 

• And the next level and the next level, and so on.

• Then daily it does become a beautiful game of positive challenging stress.

• However, if your expectations keep on increasing while your stress-bearing capacity remains the same, then it soon starts causing you more and more anxiety.

• If your anxiety remaind remains unchecked, then it soon leads to attacks of Severe Anxiety.

• Information Technology [IT] has brought the whole world together like never before. 

• Along with this globalized world has come tremendous IT-related stress on everybody as a most unpleasant side-effect.

• Today you may be an IT professional or only use computers as an efficiency tool or only for fun. 

• But there is no escaping from the stress that is caused to your mind and body by daily spending hours in front of the computer screen………

• Whether the stress is because of IT overload or because of other numerous reasons your body undergoes the following Bell Curve under stressful situations:

• There are 7 stages in this graph called the ‘Bell Curve’:

Stage 1 of Challenging Positive Stress or Eu-stress

• It is the stage of excitement, efficiency, and enthusiasm.

• You can use computers for ‘n’ number of functions. Your PC is your most loyal friend. It does not nag or rag you. 

• It simply obeys all your commands and makes your life so smooth and functional. It’s cool, man!

• As you become friendlier with this wonderful invention your whole world starts becoming more and more efficient. 

• You marvel at the tons of knowledge available to you just at the click of a small mouse.

• You enjoy the long hours spent in front of the computer screen as it gives you a deep sense of security and power in your life. 

• You enjoy working more and more at a faster and faster pace.

• Then comes the second stage of Plateau Stress………

Stage 2 of Plateau Stress

• Slowly over some time you reach a kind of peak or plateau. 

• Now as time passes, the responsibilities increase, and the workload increases. 

• But you do not experience that kind of excitement which you were feeling earlier.

• The zing seems to be missing! It starts feeling ‘boring’. 

• Only you know that something fishy is happening to you. No body else around you notices it.

• The work which was taking 1 hour earlier now starts taking 2 or even 3 hours sometimes.

• Still you keep on working harder and harder at the same old pace – ie. burning your candle at both ends to meet various deadlines. 

• But the fun is surely gone. 

• It becomes more and more monotonous and non-motivating. 

• You now want to escape from this drudgery of work

• Here comes the third stage of Emotional Dis-stress………

Stage 3 of Emotional Dis-stress

• Without realizing what’s happening to your mind and body you slowly cross the danger line from eu-stress to dis-stress! 

• It’s no longer inspiring any longer. 

• You have crossed into this negative stress zone when some of the following symptoms start hitting your daily life:

• You no longer enjoy what you used to enjoy earlier. 

• For example, 

Yesterday your favorite dish was ‘dal makhani’ but today it revolts you; 

That day you bought this red tee-shirt with so much enthusiasm, but today you don’t even feel like looking at it; 

Rajesh was your closest buddy for so many years, but today you feel you hardly know him.

• You start having short lapses of memory. 

• Like you misplace your keys, lose your wallet or simply forget an important appointment with a client. These things start happening more and more frequently.

• You start becoming cranky or irritable very easily. 

• Even small incidences start bothering you.

• As you keep on working harder still, your enthusiasm and efficiency start going down now.

• You are soon heading for the fourth stage of Loss of Peace of Mind………

Stage 4 of Loss of Peace of Mind

• Your efficiency and enthusiasm rapidly slide down now.

• You get hyper on petty issues. 

• More frequent arguments, show-downs and, emotional outbursts seem to destroy your peace of mind.

• The fifth stage of Dis+Ease is now staring at you………

Stage 5 of Physical Diseases: ‘Dis + ease’ soon becomes a ‘Disease’

• You still do not take any help to manage your stress. 

• It keeps on getting worse.

• Now physical diseases start hitting your body. 

• This could be less serious diseases like migraine, neck pain, joint pains, chest pain, acidity, gas, indigestion, backache, or skin problems.

• If you continue on this self-destructive path, then you may get attacks of more serious diseases like asthma, bronchitis, high BP, heart problems, kidney diseases, gall stones, liver failure, etc. 

• After that follows the sixth stage of Frank Depression………

Stage 6 of Frank Depression

• Now you get attacks of depression which start very small but become bigger and bigger very soon.

• You become more and more isolated and cut out from the mainstream. 

• You have negative feelings of helplessness, confusion, extreme sadness, poor confidence, etc.

• You lose interest in your career, friends, and family members

• You feel like leaving everything and just going away to some quiet place without any workload or responsibilities.

• You have reached the level of Severe Anxiety or a Burnt-out Syndrome where you feel that the candle of your life has been burnt from both the ends.

• If no real help is taken from a qualified medical professional then the seventh stage follows………

Stage 7 of Attempted Suicide

• The last stage is when you start getting self-destructive suicidal thoughts. 

• You may attempt suicide in one day. 

• The saddest examples would be of those otherwise bright medical and engineering students who take their own lives every year in our colleges because of some temporary academic failures. 

• Over some time they had gradually lost the will to live because of years and years of academic pressure built up in their minds and bodies.

• Then just one more additional stress coming from some perceived failure broke them down completely and they committed suicide.

• Same thing happens with celebrities who suddenly one day kill themselves………

• NO, CERTAINLY NOT. 

• The above-mentioned sequence leading to suicide happens very, very, very rarely. 

• But anybody who tries to commit suicide has already gone through all the stages silently without taking any help from anywhere. 

• The only thing was that he or she and the family members were not aware of what was cooking silently inside the subconscious mind of the unfortunate victim.

• The disease process went on unchecked and was not diagnosed in the early stages………

• Balance in everything, balance is everything. 

• Start today on the following guidelines:
