Do You Need To Take A Chill Pill?

You have negative stress in your life right now. Your lifestyle is relaxed, and you have a calm, sustainable routine that allows you to relax, enjoy time with friends and family, get out into nature, and exercise. You don't need a chill pill at all. In fact, you should teach others the secret behind your Zen lifestyle.

You have very little stress in your life right now. No one can avoid stress altogether, but you're doing a pretty good job of managing the inevitable annoyances that can cause anxiety and depression.

Keep calm, and carry on!

You have a higher than normal level of stress in your life right now. You have encountered more pressure, negative events, and complications than you can comfortably handle, and you are finding it hard to look on the bright side.

Make time to pamper and take care of yourself and your health, eat regularly, and prioritize having fun as well as working.

You have a high level of stress in your life right now and are coping with some changes that have you under a lot of pressure. Studies show that high levels of stress can affect your health, so make sure you are taking care of yourself as well as everyone and everything else.

Even if there's nothing you can change, you can help reduce your stress by taking 'me time' breaks (even a couple of minutes counts), eating healthily and regularly, and getting outside and exercising.
