LCU Observation
The two stressors I have chosen from my LCU evaluation are change in residence, and trouble with parents because those are two things that have become a constant in my life at this point.
Moving houses or apartments is something I have done five times since I moved to Oregon three years ago and is about to be something I am going to do again at the end of term and then during the fall when I transfer schools. Some things the class has taught me on how to better manage this stress is reframing my thinking and modifying my behavior regarding time management during a phase of packing and moving. These things are closely interconnected for me in this situation. Since moving is not a pleasant experience I put off packing this is then followed by

    Medical doctors, Holmes and Rahe (1967) observed that many of their patients who were suffering from physical illness had recently experienced a range of major live events. These were both positive and negative events, that both involved change. Holmes and Rahe suggested that this affected health. In order to test the idea that life changes are related to physical illness. Holmes and Rahe developed a questionnaire called the Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS) to identify major stressful life events. They analyzed over 5000 patient records and came up with a chart that lists a total of 43 events that can cause stress. In order to establish how stressful each event was they asked 400 participants to score each event in terms of how much readjustment would be needed to overcome the event. From the average scores the life events were awarded a Life Change Unit depending on how traumatic it was felt to be by a large sample of participants.Each of the events were ranked in order of their LCU (Life Change Unit), starting with the most high risk changes down to the lower risk ones.…

    The Overachievers essay

    The main students who suffered through the most parental stress were AP Frank and Ryland. AP Frank’s mother being Asian gives her a strict academic mindset. She pushes Frank so hard often times getting physical with him. She forces him to take all AP classes and does not allow him to “waste” his time being with friends or playing sports. At times when his home life became too stressful Frank would confine in his guidance counselor and have break downs. Eventually Frank’s parental stress alleviated when he went off to Harvard, which allowed him to find himself through experiencing new things and people. Most of the stress Ryland underwent during his junior year was due to his mother’s “never good enough” attitude towards him. Unlike AP Frank, eight AP classes is not something Ryland can handle. It is very easy for him to crumble under pressure and fall behind in his assignments. His mother was never there for him in the right ways, instead for helping with getting back on track she would put him down by saying he “is just not smart enough to get into any college”. Ryland opens up about his home life being so stressful he has cut himself and even contemplated suicide. Parents should be the ones lightening stress from their kids’ shoulders not adding to it.…
