Nowadays, stress is a big issue across numerous countries around the globe. But, what are the main factors of this situation in modern society and what measures can be taken to lower stress. This essay will discuss main factors and possible solutions regarding this problem.
Concerning the causes of stress, the following points and arguments are worth pointing out. Firstly, it is obvious that financial literacy and independence is playing a crucial role in recent times and it is also the biggest problem. It is widely accepted that in modern society getting financial stability is more and more harder, due to some major causes such as constantly rising living costs, job insecurities and other ones, leading to the gradually increasing debt and credit taking. Secondly, work and academic pressure. Nowadays, to increase profit, companies are demanding incredibly high work rates, and shortening deadlines, but there is also big competition. This situation can be clearly seen not only in the work sphere but also happening in academic areas, where juveniles are competing for places in good universities and colleges. Finally, social network and media overload. In these applications users constantly see ‘the perfect life’ leading to comparison, groundbreaking negative insights, and spend most of their leisure time, which is leading to improper sleep patterns.
Regarding the solutions to this problem, several key strategies are worth mentioning. For financial problems governments can offer a financial educational and skill-developing programme to strengthen individuals’ understanding regarding the finance sphere. Moreover, encouraging people to create ‘piilow’ for unpredicted circumstances is also a useful one. To deal with academic and work pressure schools and companies should create a ‘support system’, which will do counseling services and provide an answer for major questions. In addition this system will give a ‘healthy balance’, which means short breaks and communication with colleagues in interesting topics. This all has to be included with time managing lessons in order to fix sleep patterns and give independence in making decisions. This program would also be suitable for dealing with network overload, because improper sleep is one of the biggest issues.
In conclusion, despite stress being a widespread problem and having some key reasons, solutions which would directly address this problem can easily solve this issue.
