In
the
1960s,
medical
researchers
Thomas
Holmes
and
Richard
Rahe
developed
a
checklist
of stressful events. They appreciated the tricky point that any major change can be
stressful.
Bad
events
like
"serious
illness
of
a
family
member"
were
high
on
the
list,
but so were some helpful life-changing events like marriage.
When you take the Holmes-Rahe test you must remember that the score does not
show how you deal with stress
?/p>
it only shows how much you have to deal with. And
we now know that the way you deal with these events dramatically (
戏剧性的
) affects
your
chances
of
staying
healthy.
By the
early 1970s,
hundreds of similar studies
had
followed Holmes and Rahe. And millions of Americans who work and live under stress
worried
over
the
reports.
Somehow
the
research
got
boiled
down
to
a
memorable
message.
Women's magazines ran titles like "Stress causes illness".
If
you
want
to
stay
physically
and
mentally
healthy
the
articles
said
avoid
stressful
events.
But
such
simplistic
advice
is
impossible
to
follow.
Even
if
stressful
events
are dangerous , many
?/p>
like the death of a loved one
?/p>
are impossible to avoid.
Moreover, any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription (
处方
) for
staying away from chances as well as trouble. Since any change can be stressful, a
person who wanted to be completely free of stress would never marry, have a child,
take a new job or move. The idea that all stress makes you sick also takes no notice
of
a
lot
of
what
we
know
about
people.
It
supposes
we'
re
all
vulnerable
and
not
active
in the face
of the
difficult
situation. But
what about human ability and creativity?
Many
come through periods of
stress
with more physical and mental strength than they
had before. We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to
boredom and physical and mental pressure.
