Stress has become a normal part of everyday life for most people. Work stress continues to reach new levels as workplaces become more and more competitive. These levels of stress can negatively affect our mental health, and left unchecked can cause deeper mental issues. If issues like anxiety, depression, or mood disorders affect someone, they should seek professional help, but often don't.
