Don't Let Moving Stress Give You Ulcers

Americans spend millions of dollars every year on stress relief

. They invest in everything from aroma therapy candles and massages to Tai Chi classes and counseling. The things that stress out Americans are not surprising; most of the top ten most common stressors Americans deal with are predictable enough; finances, family relationships, legal entanglements, etc.

One of the top ten stressors, however, may surprise you. Mental Health America generated a list of the top causes of stress in the lives of Americans, and moving is listed among the top ten most stressful of life's events, placed right up there with the death of a family member, divorce, a change in financial situation, and a prison term. Moving of course may be less permanent and usually presents less dire consequences than many of the other events on the list, and yet it can often cause as much frustration, anxiety and strain as these hugely life altering events.

Moving can be stressful on so many levels; the decision to move in the first place is often prompted by other major life changes, such as a change in employment, a foreclosure, or a change in family circumstances like the birth of a child, a separation, or the need to be near an elderly parent who requires care. The de-junking, packing, labeling and cleaning involved in moving can feel like a feat in organizational engineering, the expenses inherent in moving tend to pile up quickly, and the physical strain of moving heavy boxes and awkwardly shaped furniture can take its toll in aches and pains.

However, unlike the majority of other events on the list of top ten stressors, there is affordable help available to assist individuals and families through moving that can make the ordeal significantly less stressful, and even go smoothly. Professional moving companies in Ft. Lauderdale and moving companies in Miami have streamlined the process of moving and have it down to a science. Providing all the moving essentials, such as packing materials, a moving van, and even big muscley guys to help carry heavy items, professional movers offer an all-inclusive, affordable approach to moving to rescue families from nervous breakdowns.

Of course families who are moving still have to deal with the reasons that necessitated the move in the first place, as well as the pressure of finding a suitable home in the new area, possibly selling their old home, and the trauma of relocation, but the moving process itself can be easily taken care of, alleviating an immediate cause of ulcer inducing stress so that individuals can focus on the underlying issues at hand.
