"Our society has a tendency to place unreasonable expectations upon us from a very early age. As time goes on, these expectations develop into pressures, frustrations and stressors that manifest in the form of emotional, psychological and even physical distress. In order to ease the discomfort or suffering we attempt to avoid or escape which results in anxiousness, anger, worry, isolation, addiction or a variety of other problems. As stress levels increase and we continue to engage in a cyclical way of responding to the unease we essentially create an environment ripe for the onset of mental health disorders."
