Stress vs. Society

This weekend I had tons of homework; consequently, I had a lot of stress; but stress? What is it useful for? I have several two theories about it. The first one is that it just something that a person has when he/she is worried about something and it just functions as something negative because If someone stresses a lot he/she would have problems with his body; Therefore it is important to control stress and try to get rid of it. My second theory is most likely the same, but the difference is that with stress, for example: I can make thing better and faster, because I’m worried about something, then I worked more efficient.

I heard once, that stress was going to be the biggest problem in the world (besides obesity), but what really caught my attention was that stress was going to be the biggest factor of suicides, and I was like: Noooo! Because I suffer from stress, and now I understand that we have to have a balance between stress and freedom. There are several ways to calm down your nerves & stress. I think this is quite important to society because everyone knows that we have to take care about our body, what we eat and all that, but almost nobody knows that we also have to take care about our mind and our mental problems such as stress. Which is a really huge problem for the next years. We have to learn how to manage our stress and if not; we will loose our heads...
