Life has become much more stressful compared to our parent’s generation. As a result, stress-related illnesses are increasing around the world. Why is stress such widespread in the modern world? What do you think can be done to overcome the problems caused by stress?

Stress

slays us from the inside and can lead to personal, social, physical and psychological issues that drive us to the verge of dilapidation.

Stress

and anxiety are far more severe and widespread among the modern generation than in their forefathers. The reasons for

this

crisis could be attributed to poor working conditions and the worldwide financial crisis. Several initiatives could be taken to address

this

problem. One of the primary reasons for the extensive

stress

-related problems in the modern era is the demanding and highly competitive work environment. Constant work pressure, deadlines, and job insecurity lead to lengthier office

hours

, which leave little or no family or personal time. It disrupts our relationships, social

life

, and sleep

, and fosters unhealthy diet habits and sedentary lifestyles.

For instance

, with the ever-increasing working

hours

, employees sleep fewer

hours

than ever before, and the majority of them do not cook healthy meals at home. The final result is a more stressful

life

and deteriorating health conditions. Another reason for

this

horrendous problem is the global economic crisis and rampant inflation.

As a result

, many

people

find it extremely difficult to meet their expenses and often get trapped in loans and debts. Bankruptcy is increasing, and more

people

are trying to get a second job to support their lifestyle than ever before. The result is more depression and distress, which even leads to suicides. As a solution to

this

social catastrophe, governments should enact laws to restrict working

hours

and push employers to improve the working environment for their employees.

and tension. To give an example, even after having a busy professional

stress

is a silent killer and impedes our performance, deteriorates our health and destroys our relationships. It is expected that individuals and governments will work hard to make a

stress
