W*dn*9day, Jun* 11994" Houston Timos-Jcumal Page 10A ■BljiTjohiTL Magac I Stress doesn't cause pains and aches You wake up in the morning feeling fine, but as you walk into work you start to feeling that tightness in your back and neck. The first few hours seem to go by easily. After your weekly meeting with the boss, that neck tightness turns into a blistering headache. Even your shoulders start to ache and feel like they weigh 2 tons each. You walk back into your office only to find out that none of the assignments you've delegated have been completed. Now that lower back tightness turns into a stabbing pain and shoots to your hip. It's the end of the day and you think "If only I could get a different job", "If only my boss wasn't so demanding", "This stress is causing all my problems". Right!? Well, no. Back in the early 80's popular psychology brought us the term "stress". Pretty soon every ailment known to mankind was some how linked to stress. While stress is an important fact to be considered, we have turned to blaming everything on stress. "How can it be", you may say, that I feel fine when I'm on vacation and as soon as I get stressed out again, all my pain returns? Doesn't this mean stress is causing my pain? Again, to put it simple, the answer is no. Let's look at what stress is. Stress is any event that elicits a response from the body. Some events that are stressful to you may not bother someone else. For instance, going on a family vacation might relieve all your "stresses" but for someone else, it might cause incredible amounts of "stress". That person probably couldn't wait till they got back home. However, it happens, events occur in lives that we react to in a negative fashion. All of us have these, so why is it that one person can endure the same negative stress you have and not feel pain or aches. This is the key. What makes your body different from the person who suffers no ill effects. More likely than not, your body has physical problems that the other person doesn't have. Stress didn't cause your pain or aches, it merely brought them out. Those physical problems were always there, they just didn't show symptoms until the daily stress took those weak links to their limit. Again stress causes nothing, it merely tests your body. Unfortunately, physical problems force some of us to give in before the stress leaves. Jordan reports for duty with U.S. Navy Navy Fireman Recruit Anthony R. Jordan, son of Henry and Ora D.
