There are many contributors to stress in our modern way of life. Stress is known to be a far-reaching factor in the development of health issues. Stress puts strain on our hearts and other organs. Even though we can't see all the negative manifestations of stress right away, we still feel that stress in life. <center><img src="https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/Qma4zhJfEEvGNqu6AkhAortpsn1RFJwyRaZQBAw6Taihsn" /><br/><em><a href="https://pixabay.com/en/emergency-exit-exit-escape-route-696656/">Source</a></em></center> All that stress makes us want to find a way out, to escape it. The modern world has a lot of outlets for our stress, to escape the stress, but also escapes from the boredom of our lives. Many of us lack significant meaning and purpose in the bigger picture, being satisfied by our personal sensory pleasures and gratifications. To escape the stress and boredom, many consume food that provides them with a sense of feeling good. Others do drugs to relax or feel different. But most people consume entertainment of various kinds to drown out the boredom, to phase out, zone out, veg out, numb ourselves and escape. Drugs, alcohol, sex, sports, entertainment, gossip, TV, media and games are all used to fill time, to not be bored, to have new sensory experiences feed our thoughts and feelings, to experience sensations. They are distractions that keeps our time, energy and attention locked up in a cage of frivolity, keeping our vision looking at things that don't really matter, keeping us from looking deeper into our world and reality to see the hard truths we want to avoid facing. People don't want to talk about heavier issues, they want to talk about βlightβ, mostly pointless and irrelevant topics of conversation, or superfluous chit-chat small-talk about their personal lives. The desire to talk about more meaningful things that matter more, is not too present. That's too "heavy". That's too negative. Those topics bring people "down", making them "feel-bad" about the condition of the world. They just want to "feel-good" and live in a positivity mask with rose-colored glasses. <center><img src="https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmYrTcn3WHSh2PTaWCDxUbULiVXPebALAp3Zxe6jD2W3Xt" /><br/><em><a href="https://www.commdiginews.com/business-2/the-democrats-delusional-rose-colored-glasses-68420/">Source</a></em></center> Ask someone what the most important 3 things are in their lives, and you will likely get "family", and "friends" in there usually, some people have "money" as highly important, or a "career", but most of all you will get people to say "being happy" is part of what is important for them. After all, that's the American Dream, the blind pursuit of happiness as a goal in life to maximize and focus on. Our actions are being driven by the pursuit of happiness. Donβt worry, just be happy, ignorance is bliss, right? Who needs higher ideals to focus on, like truth? Who answers that truth is important in their life? Not that many. The happiness dream is distraction to keep us focused on feeling-good in life, and avoid the negative that can bring you down, but needs to be dealt with if we want a sane world. > "Human sickness is so severe that few can bear to look at it. But those who do will become well."<br/>β Vernon Howard <center><img src="https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmZoKsRCgQRsdmeM55zYyVwZuxu2Rb5wtcRgy7878oZEcb" /><br/><em><a href="http://www.azquotes.com/quote/1458695">Source</a></em></center> Rather than seek to escape the boredom because we lack a truer, higher and realer purpose in our lives to spend our time, energy and attention on, we should learn to develop a care for truth to motivate and rive us towards using our time, energy and attention in more meaningful ways. We have to be willing to be affected by reality, and feel the worry, anxiety, stress, discomfort, insecurity, doubt, and fear as a signal and trigger to wake us up to realize the supreme importance of truth in life. Then to go out and seek it and figure out what is wrong int he world and with our lives, and what is making us so stressed, sot hat we can change things for the better. There is limited time in life. Spend in wisely. If things need to be healed and repaired, be it in the world or in ourselves, if now is not the time, when is? If it's not up to us to do anything about it, then who is it up to? <center><img src="https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmfAui8igoBsqYswzTVFwpqqyigBQc6oEcboehhH49FyT9" /><br/><em><a href="https://pixabay.com/en/mortality-skull-and-crossbones-401222/">Source</a></em></center> --- **Thank you for your time and attention.

You are spot on on this. Yes people do not like to be told the truth, as a matter of fact escaping reality has a major long knock off effect. Escaping is just effective for sometime.

Family, friends, and money 3 things to look for in life is very true. Boredom is definitely there in every human being, just a different way to get rid of that feeling. While if we always think positive then the energy of the mind we spend will be positive as well. regards @krnel :)

>The desire to talk about more meaningful things that matter more, is not too present. That's too "heavy". That's too negative. Those topics bring people "down", making them "feel-bad" about the condition of the world. Which is why humor is such a powerful vehicle - as a segue into subjects lots of people prefer to avoid, for the reasons you say. >Rather than seek to escape the boredom because we lack a truer, higher and realer purpose in our lives to spend our time, energy and attention on, Is this purely from decadence, and technological advances, I wonder? _Real_ purpose on the biological level is food, shelter, sex. That's it. So all the computer games in the world with as much realism as actually being there is not _actually_ being there,(and we know this in our brains) because our basic needs have already been met. For purpose to be real it has to have meaning, relevance. And for that to happen, does it not _have_ to be linked (closely) to meeting the basic needs of the biological unit? That sounded much more depressing and nihilistic than I meant it to! lol

No, purpose and meaning doesn't have to be linked to the basic needs of food, shelter, sex... lol. Those are lower basic goals for survival, not evolution in consciousness ;)

lol - no, I realize it doesn't _have to be related_. > ....evolution in consciousness ????? My point was that the _further_ away from these basics you go, the more abstract it becomes (evolution in consciousness?) So to make these _purposes_ as _real_ as possible, requires a self induced 'fooling of oneself', to 'make it' as real as possible. But it never will be - it never _can_ be. Food shelter sex _is_ the reality, the rest is degrees of a self convincing argument forcing other _purposes_ to take the mantle of 'just as real'. ....you see what I mean? Still don't mean to be nihilistic....

best regards sir @krnel. your article is very good and interesting, here I try to add how to relieve stress. 6 Steps Eliminating Stress Without Drugs Heavy workloads and daily activities are often the main factors causing stress. Due to stress, many people have trouble sleeping and eating which ultimately affects their health. It is not uncommon for people with depression to depend on sedatives or sleeping pills to cope with the stresses in the mind and soul. In fact, the American Addiction Centers study shows the use of sedative substances such as benzodiazepine in the long term can cause addiction, disorientation, panic, memory loss, to kidney disorders and other vital organs. 1.Do not Drown Thoughts Alone The easiest way to get rid of stress is to pour it into the nearest person you trust. This one technique does seem trivial, but the fact is there are still many people who are reluctant to pour out his thoughts for fear of the judgment of people and labels embedded in him. The American Psychological Association advises stress sufferers to pour out their hearts and minds to the nearest people or therapists. It can release the hormone endorphins, hormones that produce a sense of calm as well as useful to boost immunity. 2.Create a Personal Journal Many depressed people who think talking to a therapist or close friend is not able to reduce his psychological burden. If you include people who are less likely to share their complaints with friends, researchers from the University of Rochester Medical Center advise you to pour stress and sadness through the journal. Writing thoughts and feelings in a journal is believed to help identify what things are most commonly causing stress. By writing, you can get to know yourself better. When you are able to identify the causes of stress and its effects for yourself, you can look for ways to solve the problem that is often the cause of stress. 3.Relaxation with Aromatherapy Tired and stressed out after a day of activity? It's time to relax muscles and tense minds with the help of aromatherapy. Aromatherapy derived from lavender oil that is scientifically proven to reduce the frequency of heartbeat and blood pressure so the body can be more relaxed. The results of a study published by sleepfoundation.org prove that people who breathe in lavender before bed have better sleep quality. The study further explains that the scents that a person inhales before sleep can have a direct effect on their dreams. So, the researchers advise you to keep the room clean and use soft fabric softener softener. 4.Meditation Meditation is believed to help people with depression calmer and shaping positive thoughts in overcoming daily problems. Mayo Clinic explained that meditation has some psychological benefits such as: Sharpen the mind to focus Establish a positive attitude when faced with problems Reduce negative thoughts Helps people with depression recognize their emotions During meditation, we are also trained to regulate breathing patterns. Respiratory techniques are known to be effective in reducing levels of the hormone cortisol and helping the mind to be more calm. 5.Reduce Activities in the Maya World The intensity of social relationships in cyberspace contribute to a large role in increasing levels of stress. If you include people who often get annoyed after reading fierce debate or provocative news on the internet, maybe this is the time to reduce activity in cyberspace. By doing a "social media diet", you can better appreciate the importance of direct social interaction with those around. 6.Engaging in Religious Activities When the heart is not calm, our parents would often recommend to pray and get closer to the Almighty. Apparently, it is proven scientifically able to reduce the sense of stress and feelings of self-loathing. In The SuperStress Solution, Dr. Roberta Lee reveals that religious people often use their spiritual beliefs in the face of every life issue. Dr. Lee is supported by the National Institute for Health Care Research (NIHR) study which explains that students at a Canadian university who engage in religious activities are less likely to experience stress disorders than other students. ### That's six ways to eliminate stress without drugs you can apply. Positive thoughts and behaviors in dealing with stress are the main capital in preventing the onset of ongoing stress or depression. When the stress is too difficult to dammed, do not hesitate to seek the help of experts. Most importantly, do not bet your mental health on the consumption of tranquilizers that have a dangerous long-term risk.

Thank you so much for this. We do not need to look far. FACEBOOK and all those people with perfect lives and many *friends* just goes to say where human consciousness is. No one shows anything negative in their Facebook. According to Facebbok everyone has achieved the *Happiness Dream* as you call it. It's time to wake up. And.... GROW UP.

My mother use to tell me "your eye's are the window to your soul. If you want to be presentable you had better make sure of what people see in those eye's when they look at them." Then she would hurriedly say, "but don't you think to much about what they think. Just be beautiful you." It has taken a while to get what she was trying to tell me. When we are young we think to much about what others think. As we get older we begin to at some point not be distracted by what people think. Truth to tell we most likely never got what others thought right anyways. Funny thing is that is when we really begin to live.

Yeah, what others say matters, we can learn from others, not live in a delusion, others can check us when we are wrong or foolish, but they can also be wrong and make false claims about us ;) Life is judgment, we have to be able to honestly judge things being said as being correct and accurate or not.

> People don't want to talk about heavier issues, they want to talk about βlightβ, mostly pointless and irrelevant topics of conversation, or superfluous chit-chat small-talk about their personal lives. I find this so true! I always want to discuss deep topics that I believe matter but very few people are willing to engage in any kind of meaningful conversation. Maybe it's just me and I need that kind of mental stimulation to keep from becoming bored with the day to day life... Also thanks for the witness vote! It's a huge help! <3
