what makes young people in Britain stressed. Listen to these people. I get stressed when I'm going to be late. I've got a lot of things to do in a fixed time and I'm under pressure and I get very stressed because I don't think there's enough time to get everything done. When I have too much work and I have deadlines coming soon. I think that stresses me. Time. Deadlines. Being late. But you know, I'm sure these things aren't unique to only British people.A little pressure can be a good thing, but too much can be stressful. Now, let's hear a few more things that make people stressed. Mainly expectations: other people expecting a certain level of performance, for example in exams. One of the things I find very stressful at work is when my computer is very slow or when it crashes. It means that I can't do my job properly and it makes the day longer. And that's what gets me really stressed.
