The prevalence of anxiety and stress related to work and financial pressures are increasing. Work is becoming more about just a “job” and not so much about doing what we like, what contributes to a sense of satisfaction and intellectual / professional growth. The rapidly changing society is also playing its share in the increase of anxiety and burnout among population, at least in North American. Our fast speeding society promotes the competitiveness and pressure, and as such burn out, anxiety and unmanageable stress (at least perceived as such) are leading to relationship difficulties and impaired mental, social, and academic functioning. Thus, why we decided to introduce a brief series on stress management, which can be viewed on the upcoming series of this topic as prepared by Dr. Bita.
