Not everyone can help it and I know this goes without saying, but if you live a stressful life and subject yourself to stress often do your best to make a change to reduce it when possible. Being stressed will actually rip your DNA apart. I don't think many people appreciate that stress is an enemy of longevity but instead rationalize it as an honorable way to live for the sake of appearing motivated or successful in western society. Additionally there are many situations where people can make a concerted effort to not react with stress through reasoning that it is mostly unproductive in addressing adversities.
What are telomeres and how are they related to aging and disease? How does stress rank in terms of factors that affect telomere length? More reading/source: https://www.apa.org/monitor/2014/10/chronic-stress.aspx (The American Psychological Association is the largest scientific and professional organization of psychologists in the United States) There are many sources of evidence that telomere attrition is associated with, and probably causative of, cancer. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3318193/ --- ...

Yo, I'm trying not to but when life wants to bend you over and hit you from behind, you cant stop it. I feel that, definitely experienced a few lows where stress was overwhelming and it largely had to do with my inability to provide for myself in the current economic structure without making large sacrifices that cost me some sanity (working long hours under oppressive management while studying, not having enough time for sleep etc). I think as a society maybe we should address this kind of stress with better social safety nets, stronger labor regulations, etc instead of pushing for more suffering as some kind of weird dated rite of passage. The struggle is definitely real. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
