Get the level with stress mug.A winter season holiday that begins around the end of November, and culminates on December 25. The total level of stress accumulates exponentially the closer one gets to the 25th, and continues to linger above a background level at least until the end of January. As the financial, bad weather, health, and family stress cycles peak around the 25th of December, people celebrate by drinking copious amounts of alcohol and engaging in gluttonous behavior. Stressmas is also noted for its especially annoying music that plays on every radio stationan shopping center PA system, further exacerbating the stressful situation by creating a trigger that turns one violent and belligerent. Marked by long shopping lines and traffic for no reason, one cannot avoid celebrating Stressmas. Those with exes, inlaws, and children tend to celebrate Stressmas more faithfully than single people.
Merry Stressmas!

Get the Stressmas mug.Post-triggered stress disorder (P{T}SD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying post -- either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event.
Many people who go through triggered events have difficulty adjusting and coping for a while, but they don't have P{T}SD -- with time and good self-care, they usually get better. But if the symptoms get worse or last for months or even years and interfere with your functioning, you may have P{T}SD.
Getting effective treatment after P{T}SD symptoms develop can be critical to reduce symptoms and improve function.
