STRESS MANAGEMENT---1 Even Yam
Stress is a common problem for urban dwellers. Those who are studying in university have to face a high level of stress which comes from learning in a new environment, social life with new friends and living away from family….etc . However, if university students can handle the stress well, they can have a happy university life. The matter is how to handle it “well”---that is good stress management.
When you want to manage something well, you must understand the nature of it. Stress comes from many external forces and then they are internalized as anxiety which is harmful to either or both your body physically and your mind mentally. This harmfulness is not only depends on the impacts from outside world but also the loading ability of oneself. For example, a big man of 82 kilogram (=180 pounds) who carries a load of 50 kilogram (=110 pounds) will not cause any heavy burden or stress to him while a young man of 58 kilogram (= 128 pounds) who carries the same load of 50 kilogram (=110 pounds) will surely collapse.
On the other hand, the loading ability of oneself is also a crucial factor for the harmfulness of stress. The loading ability may be changed from time to time. It sometimes depends on the mental hygiene and the emotional status of oneself. If one always thinks positively, his loading ability may be higher. Certainly, pessimistic people must have lower loading ability to stress. As a result, the same problem may be a stress to someone but not necessary to the others. Every individual is unique. There is no comparison among individuals. Never ask why the examination is stress to me or why the project presentation is stress to her.

2. To bawl to the air
One can release one’s stress by bawling. One can go out to an open area for bawling without disturbing the others.
