When I lose my cool at work, I often find myself yelling at my boss. I care for and teach toddlers (1-2 1/2 years old) and have high stress sometimes when there are other things going on in my life. I don’t want to be insubordinate and yell, but that’s what it comes to sometimes and it’s not anything that my boss did or didn’t do… It’s mostly in my mind. I set high expectations on myself and get stressed when things don’t go the way I’d hoped. Please any suggestions that I can do around toddlers would be nice so that they don’t have to see me blow my cool. I’d like suggestions on what I can do while still caring for these children. Also how to not yell at my boss because it’s not her fault.

Stress is an everyday problem that can be extremely taxing to people.

Many people just pass stress off as a temporary thing that will go away with time. The problem with that is that they are neglecting the effect that stress can have on the human body when endured over long periods of time. Stress has been linked to a whole host of physical ailments, including many different types of cancer. Contrary to the popular saying, stress won’t just make you lose your hair. It could cause you to lose your life.

Stress is generally built up over time. It doesn’t discriminate, either. Stress problems can afflict students as they prepare for exams or complete work. Stress can bother people who are having financial problems or legal problems. Stress can even afflict those who are extremely wealthy.

You can go into the store and purchase aspirin to help with headaches that are caused by stress, but you can’t grab a quick fix for the problem off of any shelves. You must attack the problem at its roots in order to relieve it.
