How Does Your Financial Stress Affect Your Physical Health?

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Financial stress affects most people in one way or another. Some people become stressed to the point where they’ll self-medicate with either alcohol or some other drug, others will work to find some help and others will eat.

With the economy going the way it’s these days, financial strife is affecting more people, and those who were suffering enough before will most likely be in worse difficulty now. This means that there will be more people looking for ways to alleviate the immense stress they’re feeling when finding themselves unable to pay bills, pay for enough proper food to feed their family and finding it increasingly hard to make rent each month.

How does all this relate to physical health? When people are trying to make ends meet, bills will sometimes be their main focus first, while others are just unable to keep up because they opt to try and ignore the issue instead of facing it. In this world today, living beyond one’s means is easily accomplished, though several find it hard to fix. How lack of money relates to a person’s physical health all depends on how they handle their stress, as well as how well they’re eating. For most finding themselves in financial strife, they might begin gaining more weight than is healthy for them because they’ve changed to a diet they believe is cheaper even if it isn’t necessarily healthier. Others might find themselves losing weight because they’re so focused on trying to get their bills and loans paid off that they’re cutting the amount of food they’re buying for themselves. Even children can be affected by the changes in diet their parents go through when trying to save money during tough financial times. In fact, thousands of children daily go to school hungry because their parents simply can’t afford to buy them food for breakfast. (more…)
