Anxiety, drowsiness, fatigue and increased food consumption: some products of stress


Problems of concentration, anxiety, anguish, despair, drowsiness, chronic fatigue, reluctance and increased consumption of food (especially carbohydrates), are psychological, physical and behavioral reactions caused by stress, explained Norma de Jesus Yépez García, Department of Psychiatry and Mental Health of the Faculty of Medicine of the UNAM (Mexico).



The transit, exams, time, money, interpersonal relationships, diseases, insecurity, work, unforeseen events, the future and even our body weight are stressors.



Stress, he explained, is a physical, emotional or mental response to a physical, psychological or social situation. "Our body seeks balance, but when something goes out of control and we face a problem, or when the strategies we use do not usually work, we enter a crisis moment. That imbalance generates stress. "



Many factors provoke it, but we also develop negative habits that detonate it, such as the lack of organization.



In the Sotero Prieto auditorium of the Faculty of Engineering (FI), Norma de Jesus Yépez warned that stress should be differentiated from anxiety, which is a psychiatric disorder, whose highest level is agoraphobia, when people have crises to the degree that They do not leave their house anymore. "Stress is momentary and anxiety is long term."

Behind the insomnia there is always worry, he stressed, "then it is important to identify what anguishes and stresses us". When someone can not sleep, the specialist recommended to count in reverse order "effective strategy because it requires more concentration. By deconcentrating yourself from the problem that causes insomnia, you manage to sleep faster. "



Being thinking about the negative side of a situation has repercussions at a physiological, cognitive and behavioral level, and consequences such as gastrointestinal problems, colitis, gastritis, tachycardia, increased consumption of food, cigarettes or drinks, he said.



To solve the stress condition it is necessary to return to equilibrium; for this there are confrontations, such as distancing (when we tend to minimize the problem, such as saying "nothing happens, yes I am going to pass the exam"), self-control (not allowing emotion to pass us) or social support (studying in team, for example). "In coping you can focus on the problem or the emotion: you attack or you get anxious."



The technique that is used from the cognitive-behavioral therapy approach is called cognitive restructuring, which consists in 'straightening' the negative thoughts: modifying the way of interpreting things and the subjective evaluations we make about the environment ".



The specialist highlighted the importance of impulse management, self-control, self-confidence and self-assessment to determine how assertive we are.



"The positive reevaluation consists of focusing on personal growth; we can even take refuge in a religious thought, which gives a feeling of emotional tranquility. " Finally, to deal with stress, he recommended acquiring techniques such as diaphragmatic or abdominal breathing. (Source: UNAM / DICYT)
