FESTIVE STRESS
This time of year can be stressful for lots of different reasons: end of year work deadlines; preparing for the festive holiday season; the prospect of attending festive parties; meeting up with friends of family (especially those we don't get on with); financial strain; social expectations; children being at home for holidays; and lots more.
It's a lot to take on in quite a small period of time, isn't it?
Stress affects us in so many different ways - emotional, social, psychological, physical, health, work, relationships, spiritual - and can affect each person in different ways.
The poster below illustrates some of these effects. Hope you find it useful. It's important to address stress as soon as you can before it gets worse and begins impacting on other areas of your life. Avoid this 'snowballing' as soon as you can by talking to a professional or accessing some help and support.
We do close early next week for our own holiday break, but we do still have some appointments available before then, and when we return in the new year too.
So, if you would like to book an appointment with any of our psychotherapists, counsellors, dietitians or with a Stress Management Therapist, either before the holidays or in the new year, feel free to get in touch if you would like more information, have any questions or would like to book an appointment.
We can provide in-person appointments at our offices in Glasgow city centre or online appointments to anyone in the UK. Our friendly, supportive and professional therapists are all skilled and highly qualified and are here to support you. Our contact details are below.
Hope you have a stress-less day!
