• Money issues
• Your job (or not having a job)
• Your health
• Health care expenses
• Your children or family
• Problems in your marriage
• A sick family member or friend

Know the signs of stress

• Worrying 
• Forgetting things
• Tiredness
• Teeling "down"
• Unable to get things done
• Can't sleep
• Nagging headaches
• Bad temper
• Avoiding your friends
• Upset stomach

Choose healthy ways to deal with stress

• When you are stress out, you may not feel like you have the time or energy to watch  what you eat or be physically active. the good news is that there are lots of healthy ways to deal with stress.
