How young people 'recharge' amid life's pressures

Modern life of young people not only has worries about life but also mental pressure. As the pace of life becomes faster, work intensity is high, social relationships are complex, the need to relieve stress and find balance becomes more and more necessary.

After completing her university degree and officially starting work, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Duong (Duc Hue commune, Tay Ninh province) faced many surprises. Ms. Duong shared: “I am working as an architect in Phu Nhuan ward, Ho Chi Minh City. Because I just graduated and have little experience, I am not used to the pace of the new environment. Office work, going to work on time, leaving work late, working overtime,... make me feel pressured”. Whenever she is stressed, she seeks out relatives and friends to share, ask for advice, and feels the joy of having someone to accompany and sympathize with.

Being in nature helps Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Duong (Duc Hue commune) relieve anxiety and pressure.

One of Ms. Duong's effective ways to relieve stress is to spend time doing what she likes. Ms. Duong said: "This is a way for me to "clean up" my mind and think more positively. I will read books with content that I like, watch movies, TV shows. In addition, participating in relaxing activities such as assembling models, drawing, cycling alone to see the scenery, taking care of plants in the garden or cleaning the house, etc. all make me more comfortable". "Recharging the battery" to increase happiness energy also helps Ms. Duong regain her composure, think more carefully and objectively to solve problems and face difficulties.

The pressure on Mr. Huynh Trung Quoc Thai (My Loc commune, Tay Ninh province) comes from his own worries and concerns on the journey to adulthood. The thought "Have I made my family feel secure?" is always his concern every time he makes a decision in his studies and work.

Mr. Thai shared: “I am working in Marketing in Ho Chi Minh City. My family wants me to work near home to be closer to my parents and have a more stable life, but I think the future is up to me to decide. Therefore, I have to prove to my family and relatives that I am capable enough and take full responsibility for what I have said and done.”

Thai’s story reflects a common reality among today’s youth: In addition to the pressure of making a living, they also have to face expectations, prejudices, and the struggle between responsibility and personal aspirations. Thai often asks himself: “Will today’s decision make me happy?” or “Will my loved ones feel the positivity I bring?”

The pressure of Mr. Huynh Trung Quoc Thai (My Loc commune) comes from the desire for his family to feel secure about him.

The quickest way to regain his spirit when facing pressure for Mr. Thai is to sit down and confide in close friends. “Sometimes, just receiving a few text messages makes me feel warm. It is not necessary to be comforted, but the feeling that someone is listening and understanding the pressure and difficulties makes me feel comforted and healed,” Mr. Thai confided.

However, to be ready to face the pressure, he understands that existing problems need to be solved. Mr. Thai shared: "To make my family feel secure about me, I always remind myself to develop more, proactively seek and seize opportunities, and expand my knowledge."

To cope with the pressure, many young people choose to share with relatives and friends, listen to advice, and seek spiritual support from surrounding relationships. However, the most important thing is the ability to pick yourself up and find the motivation to continue moving forward./.
