     While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its
effect when it can't be avoided. The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following
suggestions for ways to deal with stress.
     ◆Try physical activity
     When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity.
Running, walking, playing tennis, and working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.
     ◆Take care of yourself
     You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest. If you easily get angry and can't sleep well
enough, or if you're not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations. If stress
repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.
     ◆Make time for yourself
     Schedule time for both work and entertainment. Don't forget, play can be just as important to your overall
well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping
or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.
     ◆Make a list of things to do
     Stress can come from disorganization and a feeling that"there's so much to do, and not enough time".
Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is
completed. Set out to do the most important task first.

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人称的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁症), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (惩罚 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (摆动) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
