Hi Josie
 
Really looking forward to the discussions. May give me some insight into how to cope.
 
In the last 12 months I have had a relationship end, moved country, experienced a traumatic loss of life.

Members,

Depression is clearly associated with negative stressful life events and problems in living. Stressful life events have been found to be associated with problems with general health and well-being and research has shown that people report an increased number of stressful life event in the weeks leading up to a depressive episode.

Any change in a person’s environment, even a positive change, can result in the experience of stress.

A major behavioral change or embracing a new lifestyle, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship is often considered to be a significant stressful event. But even positive changes such as marriage, promotion at work, birth of a child, going away to school, or moving to a new home can also cause stress.

Over the course of the next few weeks we will examine the stress response and how we can deal with such stresses.
