Stress Tips from Dr Mark Porter
From a professional point of view Mark believes proactive stress management is the most effective way.
Mark’s advice is to identify the root cause of your stress and do something about it. Treating the results of stress with medication is a bit like using bleach to deal with a smelly drain. It may help for a while but unless blockage is cleared the drain will soon start smelling again. If you can't get rid of the source of the stress then find ways to stop worrying about it - worry is a useless activity that rarely helps and always hinders.
There are plenty of relaxation, time management and organisational techniques that are quick and easy but very effective. Taking some sort of action is much better than worrying through inaction.
