The surprising thing about stress is that it doesn't have to come from a difficult experience - sometimes pleasant events like starting a new job, getting married, or moving can result in the stress response.
Symptoms of stress can be divided into two categories - emotional and physical symptoms.
Common emotional symptoms are:
Irritability
Sadness
Anger
Apathy (feeling numb)
Burnout
Fear, worry
Shame and guilt
Common physical symptoms are:
Headaches
Insomnia
Fatigue
Stomach aches and Digestive issues
Body pain
Acne or breakouts
Hives
Loss of Appetite or increased appetite
If left untreated, stress can lead to various physical and mental health conditions including:
Mood and Anxiety disorders such as depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety disorder, etc.
Addiction and substance abuse
Disordered eating
Suicidal ideation
For this reason it's important to get help so that you can learn how to effectively cope with life's inevitable or unexpected stressors. Our team is trained in the effective strategies to handle stress.
Interested in learning more about how to beat stress but don't think you can commit to long-term therapy? We're going to be running a 4-week group, Finding Calm in the Body. During this group you will learn different body-based strategies to calm the nervous system and effectively manage stress. This is an affordable alternative to individual therapy.

Sarah Elizabeth McMillan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
Mental health support for physical illness, pain and uncertainty. We know that anxiety, depression and chronic stress often occur in tandem with or as a result of physical illness but can be overlooked or we may fear addressing these mental health challenges directly. Managing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, pain and others alongside of coordinating appointments, medications, treatments can feel overwhelming and isolating. It can be difficult to figure out how we can realistically fit in our needs while juggling the other demands and priorities we have.
