Coping with Faculty Stress: Survival Skills for Scholars
![Jese Leos](https://history.nicksucre.com/author/bill-grant.jpg)
Life as a faculty member can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be highly stressful. Scholars are under constant pressure to publish, teach, and serve their communities. They must navigate complex politics, tight deadlines, and the demands of students, colleagues, and administrators. Moreover, faculty members often feel isolated and unsupported in their work. This can lead to a sense of burnout, anxiety, and depression.
Fortunately, there are a number of effective coping mechanisms that faculty members can use to manage stress. These strategies can help to reduce the impact of stress on their physical and mental health, and improve their overall well-being.

Identify your stressors
The first step to coping with stress is to identify your stressors. What are the specific situations or tasks that make you feel stressed? Once you know what your stressors are, you can start to develop strategies to deal with them.
You may find it helpful to keep a stress journal. When you feel stressed, write down what you are ng, who you are with, and what you are thinking. This can help you to identify patterns in your stress triggers.
Set realistic expectations
One of the biggest sources of stress for faculty members is the pressure to meet unrealistic expectations. It is important to set realistic goals for yourself, both in your work and in your personal life.
Don't try to be perfect. It is okay to make mistakes. Focus on ng your best, and don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
Learn to say no
One of the most important survival skills for scholars is the ability to say no.
It is okay to turn down requests for your time and energy if you are already feeling overwhelmed. Don't be afraid to delegate tasks to others, or to ask for extensions on deadlines.
Take care of your physical and mental health
When you are stressed, it is important to take care of your physical and mental health. Make sure to get enough sleep, eat a healthy diet, and exercise regularly.
Stress can also take a toll on your mental health. If you are feeling overwhelmed, it is important to seek professional help. A therapist can help you to develop coping mechanisms and strategies for managing stress.
Build a support system
It is important to have a support system in place when you are feeling stressed. This can include your family, friends, colleagues, or a therapist.
Talk to your loved ones about how you are feeling. They can offer support and encouragement, and help you to put things into perspective.
Take breaks
It is important to take breaks throughout the day, especially if you are feeling stressed. Get up and move around every hour, or step outside for a few minutes of fresh air.
Taking breaks can help to clear your head and reduce stress levels.
Find ways to relax
Finding ways to relax is essential for managing stress. There are many different activities that can help to reduce stress, such as yoga, meditation, reading, or spending time in nature.
Experiment with different relaxation techniques to find what works best for you.
Coping with faculty stress can be challenging, but it is essential for your physical and mental health. By identifying your stressors, setting realistic expectations, and taking care of your physical and mental health, you can develop effective coping mechanisms to manage stress.
Remember, you are not alone. There are many resources available to help you cope with stress. Talk to your loved ones, colleagues, or a therapist about how you are feeling. With the right support, you can overcome the challenges of faculty stress and thrive in your career.
