Stress - the root of most if not all illness

It feels like I'm seeing more and more stressed up patients nowadays coming in with non-specific complains like lethargy, body aches, trouble sleeping etc. Some even manifests as central chest pain or gastric pains.

When I asked the golden question, 'Are you having too much stress?' some even started crying. Given the 5 to 10 minutes slot that I have for each patients, the crying will surely take up more than 90% of the time I have. With more than 6 patients waiting and the current one crying, I guess my stress level at that point is much higher than my own patient.

So, maintain a healthy mind, go out and do some exercise, adopt a new hobby, throw some darts to the photo of the person you dislike, shout your lungs out at the beach, or maybe....get a voodoo doll.

Hahahaha.
