RESCUE Remedy's® 80th Birthday

Research conducted to celebrate RESCUE Remedy's 80th Birthday found that, while we are feeling the strain, the pressure of modern life has a range of different effects on people:*

80% of respondents said that being stressed made them short tempered
43% said it made them gain weight
42% said it affected their relationships
22% said it drove them to drink more alcohol

"Most people now admit to feeling stressed everyday but overall stress levels aren't necessarily any higher than they were 80 years ago. What has changed is the type of stress" Liz Tucker, Health and Wellbeing Consultant.

According to Liz Tucker, in 2010 stress levels appear so much greater than 80 years ago, but maybe because people are more open about how they are feeling. 80 years ago there was a stigma attached to those who admitted to feeling stressed and many people just suffered in silence. Today individuals are much more aware of the negative impact that feeling stressed can have and are knowledgeable about the benefits of dealing with their problems at an early stage.
