Drop the facade of strength at all costs. Talk with women. Talk with other men. Talk with your doctor, counselor, minister or friend. Be willing to make lasting changes.
Men tend to find temporary outlets or relief for stress.
We suppress it, have an affair, take a second job, start a new sport, begin more exercise, go to another seminar, smoke more cigarettes, eat more french fries, or drink more beer. The net effect of coping in these ways is an increased incidence of cancer, heart disease and other stress related diseases. Examine all of your options. Generally, men see only two options in life. Work full-time, or die.
