Stressed out? Read this!
The mind is part of the body, and that physical health problems can result from stress. Some are things you might notice right away: headaches, heartburn, sleep changes, increased pain, and frequent sickness. Others are longer-term and more subtle, such as increased blood pressure, weight changes, or diabetes complications.
That's why Families First Health Center has counselors on staff to help our patients develop stress-fighting strategies. Peter Fifield and Candace Stohl can help you:
- recognize the signs and symptoms of stress
- identify triggers for stress reactions
- train yourself to relax
- reinforce healthy thinking strategies
- enhance your problem-solving skills.
Could this help you? If so, ask a Families First receptionist to make an appointment for a behavioral health consultation (603-422-8208 ext. 1), or talk to your provider next time you are here for a medical visit.
