Stressors

He could no longer control the thoughts in his head. Consciousness was a swirling mass of confusion. His anger swelled as unfathomable stress came from every direction.

He’d lost his house, his spouse, and custody of his kids. He didn’t know how he was going to make his next car payment. On top of all that, his boss said HR needs to see him. He might be getting fired.

How much pressure can one person take?

Psychologists tell us that there are two basic types of stress: eustress and distress. Eustress is a short-term stress that motivates, feels exciting, and fits within our coping abilities. Distress, on the other hand, distracts, feels unpleasant, and may be outside our ability to cope.

When people are distressed, they do things they wouldn’t normally do. The more stress, the more likely unhealthy behavior will occur. That’s why monitoring how much distress your coworkers or others around you are experiencing can help you identify someone who is on a path of destruction.

I started teaching workplace violence prevention seminars in the 90s. I’d ask participants if they were more or less stressed today than five years ago. Can you guess the answer? More. Always more. The amount of stress people feel has been steadily increasing for at least two decades. Why does that matter? Because increases in stress, for some people, will always lead to increases in violent behavior.
