not an illness as such, it’s the worrying bit that can cause the damage. Stress, worry, tension is what can do the damage. Worrying is a poison to the body. It causes toxins to be released These toxins are carried by the blood to all parts of the body and can cause physical illnesses.

What can be done to help?

We all get depressed or stressed at some time in our lives. Often it will go away as suddenly as it came on. But if the symptoms stay around for more than a week or two, help should be requested from the family GP. The Doctor will either try to sort out the problem or refer the sufferer to someone who deals with mental problems, rather than physical ones. Seeing a psychiatrist or psychologist is not a stigma. It does not mean you are losing your ‘marbles’. The psychiatrist or pPsychologist should just be thought of as a mind doctor, in contrast to a General Practitioner. Sometimes, all the sufferer needs is someone to talk to. The ‘mind doctor’ has heard it all before. So a counselling session or two may help put things in perspective for the sufferer. If the person with the dtress, depression has lost their job, they have to be encouraged to try to get another one. If this means going for a job that is less pay than the previous one, it is better than having no money coming in at all, that only adds to the stress. Maybe a new training course is what’s needed to give the person more confidence and a new skill. The death of a partner or spouse is the most stressful situation. The grieving partner could be referred to a bereavement counselling association. This is run by people who have been through it themselves and so can have empathy with the newly bereaved person.
