YOUNG WOMEN IN STRESS

Everyone has dreams, and the age at which you would like to fulfill your dreams, but we all need a break, and the biggest vote goes out to young women. Young women between the ages of 22 and 27, where they feel that they must have a "fulfilling life" both in relationships and their career.

Women, for centuries, have wanted equality, independence, education, career opportunities, the same as men. Maybe society is to blame, offering young women these advantages. It seems as though by women wanting all of this, they are placed under more stress, wanting to do everything done before its too late.

Studies carried out on women aged 22 to 27 showed that up to 32 per cent binge drink at least once a month and 22 per cent smoke tobacco at least weekly.

A further 7 per cent felt that life was not worth living and moreover 3 per cent of women at that age tend to deliberately hurt others or themselves.

Another study involving 40,000 women revealed that most 25 year olds are living close to the edge of a nervous breakdown.

As a group they are in the middle of a major health crisis which further clarifies the increasing health problems, including heart disease, breast cancer and diabetes, which could be the onset of poor self-esteem and depression.

Friends and family are a stress factor with the major being relationships, money and work, as everyone wants the best for their family and spouses.

What's difficult most is striking a balance between getting ahead at work, managing life and getting things organized so that one day you can stop and have a family, that will be supported comfortably.

~ to help you relieve stress in your life ~

Blame is a senseless action. You are the master of your own destiny, you can achieve whatever you desire and the only force that stands in your way is your own fear. So utilise your power to decide and do it!
