What Causes Stress?
 We may think of stressful events as unpleasant ones, such as losing a job or having difficulties at home or at school. But changes for the better can also cause stress, like a new baby, a wedding, and a new house. In an ideal world, maybe we could get away from stressful situations, or change them. Too often we can't do that - but we can learn to control our response to those situations. And we can develop techniques that will reduce the effects of stress on our mental and physical health. Here are some different life events that are identified as stressful. They are rated on the "Holmes-Raye" scale, which scores them according to the stress they cause (the higher the number, the greater the stress). Death of a spouse - 100 points Divorce - 73 points Marriage - 50 points Pregnancy - 40 points Buying a house - 31 points Christmas - 12 points And here are some jokes for the day! Q: What has a mouth but no teeth? A: A river. Did you hear about the cat who swallowed a ball of yarn? She had mittens! Once upon a time, long long ago, in a land far far away there lived a woman who was just too busy! She decided to make a clone of herself so she could get twice as much work done. Well, the clone helped her a lot, but it also gave her a bad reputation because the clone constantly swore. One day, the woman couldn't take her clone's foul mouth anymore, so she took it to the top of a building and pushed it off. Soon after, the woman was arrested for making an obscene clone fall. Well, hoped you enjoyed it! =) STRESS MANAGEMENT 1

Guilding Light Team stress leading to suicide?!
well so exams are coming and many of us will be encountering continuous tension and stress! i've heard many of my friends talking about suicide. so i want to explain to you guys what is this SUICIDE! Start by considering this statement: “Suicide is not chosen; it happens when pain exceeds resources for coping with pain.” That’s all it’s about. You are NOT a bad person, or crazy, or weak, or flawed, because you feel suicidal. It doesn’t even mean that you really want to die - it only means that you have more pain than you can cope with right now. If I start piling weights on your shoulders, you will eventually collapse if I add enough weights... no matter how much you want to remain standing. Willpower has nothing to do with it. Of course you would cheer yourself up, if you could. Don’t accept it if someone tells you, “that’s not enough to be suicidal about.” There are many kinds of pain that may lead to suicide. Whether or not the pain is bearable may differ from person to person. What might be bearable to someone else, may not be bearable to you. The point at which the pain becomes unbearable depends on what kinds of coping resources you have. Individuals vary greatly in their capacity to withstand pain. When pain exceeds pain-coping resources, suicidal feelings are the result. Suicide is neither wrong nor right; it is not a defect of character; it is morally neutral. It is simply an imbalance of pain versus coping resources. You can survive suicidal feelings if you do either of two things:
WITH LOVE, Guilding Light Team How Does Stress Affect The Body?
 To understand what stress does to us, imagine you lived tens of thousands of years ago, at a time when humans were threatened by hungry animals such as saber-toothed tigers and wolves. Our caveman ancestors had to be able to react instantly, either by fighting the beasts or simply, running away. We, human beings, evolved having the ability to respond to a stressful situation instantly, by preparing the body for 'fight or flight.' Under sudden stress, you will get a burst of EXCEPTIONAL STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE, as your body pump out stress hormones:
 Sometimes, we can benefit from this 'fight or flight' response - like the case of a mother whose child was pinned under a concrete slab during a tornado. Under stress, she found the strength to lift the huge slab with her bare hands, even though it later took three men to move it. But much of the time in modern life, the 'fight or flight' response wont help. Yet those stress hormones still flood your system, preparing you for physical action. And if you are under stress frequently, it can harm your physical health. Guilding Light Team# STRESS CHART
