Stress is the feeling of being under pressure. When stress is prolonged or you experience an extremely stressful event, it can deplete your coping resources, making it difficult to keep up with life's demands. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms of stress, there are 11 helplines in China you can reach for free, confidential support:

• Difficulty breathing, wheezing, or shortness of breath.
• Teeth grinding and clenching jaw.
• Difficulty concentrating and focusing.
• Having difficulty making decisions and judgments.
• High blood pressure and hypertension.
• Being overly pessimistic or only focusing on the negative side of things.
• Rapid heartbeat and chest pain.
• Dry mouth and trouble swallowing anything.

Stress saps your energy and steals your joy. When you're stressed, it's hard to be present because you become so focused on the source of your anxiety. While a little bit of stress can be helpful because it motivates you to take action, too much stress can make you want to give up.

Carrying all of your stress on your own can be a heavy burden to bear. Reaching out to a hotline counselor in China can help lighten your load and bring you relief. A helpline counselor will listen to you with compassion and can help you find healthy ways to cope.

If you feel like you might need support with your experiences of stress, try reaching out to a hotline in China. It's free and confidential.
