The UK Stress Equation: what’s pushing us to the edge, and the impact it has on our health

Reviewed by Dr Bhavini Shah

Stress is a natural human response to pressure or perceived threat, defined as a state of worry or mental tension caused by a difficult situation. While short-term stress can help us respond to immediate challenges, when it becomes prolonged or overwhelming, it starts to take a serious toll on both mind and body.

Stress hormones are the same ones that trigger your body’s fight or flight response, a survival mechanism that has evolved over thousands of years to prepare the body for potential physical action in response to a perceived threat. It causes your heart to race, your breath to quicken, and your muscles to tense in preparation for action. 

As a defense mechanism, these hormones are important, but chronic stress - defined as a consistent state of feeling pressured or overwhelmed over a long period of time - can affect our productivity, relationships, and health. 

Dr Ravi Gill, Clinical Health Psychologist who has worked in the field of mental health since 2011, explains the difference between normal day-to-day stress and stress that’s harmful to health.

“Stress itself isn’t always bad; some stress is part of normal life and can even motivate us. The difference between normal, manageable stress and harmful, health-impacting stress comes down to intensity, duration, and how it affects daily functioning. 

“Normal stress is short-lived and tied to specific moments, whereas harmful stress tends to last for weeks or even months. It can manifest as persistent symptoms like headaches, digestive problems, high blood pressure, chest tightness, or frequent illness due to a weakened immune system. Chronic stress will also bring ongoing anxiety, mood swings, emotional numbness, or even hopelessness. 

“It can also impact your sleep, causing insomnia and constant fatigue. Over time, it may alter your normal behaviours, for instance, isolating yourself, over or undereating, relying on substances, or losing interest in things that you once enjoyed.

“It’s always important to remember that if symptoms of stress are persistent, worsening, or interfering with sleep, health, relationships, or daily functioning, it’s likely harmful and worth addressing - whether through lifestyle changes, stress management techniques, or professional support.”

Mental Health UK’s Burnout Report 2025 reveals that an overwhelming number of Brits (91%) are experiencing  ‘high’ or ‘extreme’ levels of pressure or stress. In response to this stress pandemic, Lloyds Pharmacy Online Doctor has launched a generational “Wellbeing Formula”, analysing both causes of stress and the relaxation tactics each generation employs to mitigate these pressures to manage their overall wellbeing.

The big and small stressors for Brits in 2025

A recent survey by LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor found that almost a quarter of Brits (22%) admit to experiencing stress as frequently as every day of the week, a number that climbs to 25% for women (compared with 18% for men). Despite these high figures, half of Brits (48%) claim to have never taken a day off work for stress-related reasons, and of those that have, three in 10 (30%) gave a different reason to their employer. 

More than half of Brits (59%) agree that the cost of living crisis regularly stresses them out, while a further 55% say it’s their work, and a third (33%) are stressed by health concerns. 

However, stress can also come in the form of small, everyday annoyances, and the little things that build up consistently - often on top of major life worries. When it comes to everyday stress, the thing Brits dread the most is running late (56%), followed by poor internet connection (43%) hindering both the ability to work and unwind, and uncomfortable clothing (40%).

Being stuck behind someone walking slowly causes stress for 35% of Brits, while 30% hate queuing, and a quarter get stressed out about deciding what to have for dinner. A quarter (26%) can’t stand awkward small talk, and one in eight cite feelings of stress associated with hydration and forgetting their reusable water bottles.

However, when split by gender, it’s clear women are much more likely to be stressed by day-to-day occurrences than men. 

Dr Ravi Gill explains why women typically report higher levels of stress than men:

“Stress affects both the body and the mind in profound ways. From a gender perspective, there are several factors that can contribute. For one, women are more likely to balance multiple demanding roles such as their career, caregiving, and household responsibilities, which can amplify stress, but they’re also subject to more hormonal fluctuations; from the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause, all of which can heighten vulnerability to stress responses. 

“On top of these bigger life pressures, everyday stressors - such as running late, queuing, poor internet, or even deciding what to have for dinner - can accumulate and intensify overall stress. Women are more inclined towards emotion-focused coping, such as rumination or social support-seeking, meaning these small daily hassles may have a great impact, adding to the cumulative stress load. 

“Men, on the other hand, may lean towards problem-solving or distraction, and this difference can affect both the perception and reporting of stress.”

Interestingly, despite being designed for connection and social interaction, our survey found one in 10 Brits admit that social media makes them feel worse about their life every day.

As Dr Ravi Gill explains, social media often contributes to stress because: “It amplifies social comparison, creates unrealistic standards, and fosters a constant state of being ‘on’. Seeing curated highlights of others’ lives can trigger feelings of inadequacy, while the pressure to maintain an ideal online image can heighten anxiety, and the endless stress of information overstimulates the brain. Exposure to negative content, online conflicts, or cyberbullying can directly harm emotional wellbeing.

“Platforms that emphasise image-based content and popularity metrics such as likes or followers are particularly associated with stress, especially around self-image and social validation. Excessive news consumption can also heighten stress by exposing users to constant negative or overwhelming information.”

Our study found that when it comes to coping mechanisms to manage stress, almost half of Brits (46%) turn to comfort food or sweet treats, followed by taking a walk outdoors (40%) and having a hot bath or shower (40%). 

When looking at gender differences in stress responses, 46% of women admit to crying as a coping mechanism, compared with just 16% of men, while men are more likely to enjoy gaming as stress relief (26% versus just 8% of women). 

Almost two-fifths (39%) will watch TV or stream their favourite show, and 29% will turn to exercise. 

Dr Ravi Gill adds: “While everyone has their preferred ways to manage stress, some approaches offer clear benefits for both mind and body. Physical activity, spending time outdoors, or even a hot bath can trigger the release of endorphins, which can help improve mood and reduce tension. Even comfort activities, like watching a favourite show or connecting with friends, can provide emotional relief and a sense of control. 

“Understanding and using these strategies regularly can make a real difference in how we experience and manage stress.”

The "Wellbeing Formula" for each generation

Through analysis of thousands of UK news headlines that relate to, or mention stress, from over the past 12 months, we have identified the most commonly reported stressors and coping mechanisms for each generation, in order to create a “wellbeing formula”, consisting of the techniques needed to counteract the biggest causes of stress for each group.

Wellbeing Formula Score breakdown:

• 0% (Neutral): stressors and coping mechanisms are balanced, indicating neutral wellbeing
• Positive %: Coping mechanisms exceed stress levels, indicating positive wellbeing
• Negative %: Coping mechanisms are insufficient relative to stress levels, indicating a negative wellbeing

Dr Ravi Gill has analysed how stress impacts each generation.

Baby Boomers (aged 61+)

Baby Boomers report the highest Wellbeing Formula score at 41%, which indicates that, on balance, the strategies they use to manage stress are fairly effective. In other words, their coping mechanisms - such as maintaining strong social connections, pursuing hobbies, or engaging in new experiences - are successfully offsetting the stressors they face, like retirement insecurity, workplace burnout, and inflation.

Stressors:

• Retirement insecurity: many Baby Boomers are nearing, or are in retirement, and are concerned that their savings, pensions or other financial resources may not be sufficient to maintain their desired lifestyle. Factors such as unexpected expenses, longevity, and financial planning gaps heighten this worry. 
• Inflation: outside of retirement insecurity, rising costs of living and the erosion of purchasing power are creating financial stress for Baby Boomers, including those still in the workforce and those on fixed incomes. For retirees, inflation can also exacerbate retirement insecurity by reducing the real value of their savings and income. 
• Workplace burnout: For those still working, stress from managing health changes, keeping skills current, facing age discrimination and planning for retirement - all pressures that tend to increase with age - adds to mental fatigue.

Two thirds (68%) of Baby Boomers surveyed said they believed that the stress they experience from the increased cost of living has worsened over the past 12 months, and a further 25% have experienced increased stress from health concerns in 2025, compared with 2024.

Effective strategies employed by Baby Boomers to combat stress:

• Engaging in exploration and new experiences to maintain curiosity, purpose, and joy
• Prioritising strong social connections with family, friends or communities to reduce isolation and improve emotional wellbeing
• Incorporating gaming or playful hobbies to stimulate the mind and offer light-hearted relief

Dr Ravi Gill says: “The habits Baby Boomers are leaning into - like staying socially connected, trying new things, and keeping up hobbies - aren’t just comforting, they’re genuinely protective for the brain and body.

“Research shows that strong social ties lower cortisol levels and reduce the risk of cognitive decline, while engaging in mentally stimulating or novel activities can help maintain neuroplasticity and emotional wellbeing. These routines help Baby Boomers manage life transitions like retirement with greater resilience and purpose.”

Gen X (aged 45-60)

Gen X reports a low, but still positive Wellbeing Formula Score of 6%, which indicates that their stress and coping mechanisms are almost in balance, but not strongly tilted toward positive wellbeing. In other words, their strategies for managing stress - like maintaining social relationships or engaging in creative outlets - is only partly counteracting the stressors they face.

Stressors:

• Retirement insecurity: Gen X is approaching retirement, but is worried about having sufficient savings or pension support to be able to retire when they would like to
• Anxiety & depression: this generation often feels the squeeze between caring for children and aging parents (the ‘sandwich generation’), leading to chronic stress and its symptoms of anxiety and depression
• Workplace burnout: long careers and high expectations contribute to exhaustion and mental fatigue

For Gen X, ‘work’ topped the list for major life worries causing stress, with 50% claiming it regularly stresses them out. A further 25% admitted that caring for others is stress-inducing on a regular basis, with 16% claiming this has gotten worse over the past 12 months. 

Effective strategies employed by Gen X to combat stress: 

• Tapping into music and arts therapy as a form of emotional expression and mindfulness
• Reconnecting with nostalgic experiences that offer comfort, perspective, and a sense of identity
• Strengthening social relationships to break the cycle of stress and isolation, especially during life’s ‘sandwich generation’ phase

Dr Ravi Gill says: “Gen X is under serious pressure, from career burnout to caring for both kids and aging parents, and it’s taking a toll - but their strategies, like creative expression or leaning into social connection, have real mental health benefits.

“Activities like music or art can reduce anxiety and improve emotional regulation, while close relationships are shown to act as buffers against chronic stress. Even small moments of reconnection or nostalgia can help restore perspective and support long-term wellbeing.”

Millenials (aged 29-44)

Millennials have a higher positive Wellbeing Formula Score of 21%, indicating that their coping strategies - such as engaging in nostalgic pastimes, exploring new hobbies, or maintaining healthy habits - are effective at managing stress. They are managing a wellbeing balance better than Gen X (6%) and Gen Z (-23%), but not as well as Baby Boomers (41%).

Stressors:

• Workplace burnout: Millennials have faced unstable job markets, high workloads, and the rise and expectations that come with hustle culture
• Anxiety & depression: This generation reports high rates of mental health struggles, often linked to economic instability and societal expectations 
• Housing affordability: Skyrocketing housing costs have made homeownership and financial independence extremely difficult for many in this generation

Almost two thirds of Millennials (62%) claim to be regularly stressed out by the cost of living crisis, which can be tied to the top three stressors in the Wellbeing Formula experienced by this generation. 

A further two thirds (62%) are also stressed by their working life and environment with 37% believe stress caused by work has worsened over the past 12 months, while 67% admit the cost of living crisis is causing them more stress now than it was in 2024.

Effective strategies employed by Millennials to combat stress:

• Using nostalgia as a mental escape to reconnect with simpler, more joyful times.
• Pursuing exploration through travel or new hobbies to rediscover purpose and creativity.
• Adopting healthy eating habits as a way to improve energy levels, emotional regulation, and overall health.

Dr Ravi Gill says: “Millennials are showing that intentional lifestyle habits can really move the needle on stress. Creative hobbies, nostalgia, and healthy eating aren’t just trends - they’re powerful coping tools.

“Balanced nutrition can reduce systemic inflammation and support mood stability, while engaging with joyful memories has been linked to reduced activity in stress-related brain regions. Their positive Wellbeing Formula Score suggests these habits are actively helping them manage the emotional strain and regain a sense of control.”

Gen Z (aged 18-28)

Gen Z has the lowest, and the only negative, Wellbeing Formula Score at -23%, underscoring a serious imbalance in which the stressors felt, far exceeds the coping strategies being employed. Unlike Boomers (41%), Millennials (21%), or Gen X (6%), Gen Z is struggling to manage the pressures they face, including early-career burnout, mental health challenges, and intense social media pressure. 

Stressors:

• Workplace burnout: Even early in their careers, Gen Z is experiencing burnout due to remote work fatigue, job precarity, and poor work-life boundaries
• Anxiety & depression: Gen Z reports the highest rates of mental health struggles, shaped by constant connectivity, global instability, and societal pressure
• Social media pressure: This generation grew up online, and the constant comparisons, cyberbullying, and need for validation, are taking a serious toll on mental health 

Three quarters (76%) of Gen Z admit that social media causes stress in their life, with one in 10 claiming that this is a daily occurrence in their lives. 63% admit the cost of living crisis is a regular and consistent source, and a further third (36%) admit that their relationship status, or lack thereof, is casting a shadow of stress over their lives. 

Strategies Gen Z are currently using to combat stress:

• Strengthening real-life social connections to build emotional resilience beyond the digital world
• Committing to regular physical activity and exercise to boost mood, reduce anxiety, and improve focus
• Exploring sobriety or alcohol moderation to reduce dependency on substances as a coping mechanism and support mental clarity

Dr Ravi Gill says: “Gen Z is clearly trying to take care of themselves, through exercise, alcohol moderation, and stronger real-world relationships, but they’re up against major systemic challenges. 

“Regular physical activity is proven to lower anxiety and improve cognitive function, and cutting back on substances like alcohol helps with mood regulation and sleep. But without cultural shifts around digital balance and access to mental health support, these healthy habits may not be enough on their own. With the right support, though, they lay strong foundations for future wellbeing.” 

How stress affects your body and your health

Stress and hair loss

There are three different types of hair loss that can be caused, or exacerbated by stress: Telogen Effluvium, Alopecia Areata, and Trichotillomania.

• Telogen Effluvium: a temporary condition where more hair than usual falls out, often after illness, stress, or major changes in the body. Normally, about 15% of scalp hairs are resting and ready to shed, but in this condition, that number can rise to 30% or more. This causes noticeably increased hair loss, usually starting about three months after the trigger. Hair growth usually improves naturally as the body recovers and the hair cycle returns to normal

• Alopecia Areata: while the exact cause of alopecia is unknown, this type of hair loss is believed to be related to the immune system and it is thought there are a number of causes and triggers. These triggers can be caused by something inside the body or outside, or a combination of both and it’s unlikely to be the same trigger/cause for everyone. Alopecia causes small coin-sized bald patches to appear on the scalp, face, and body. Stress hormones are theorised to affect the immune system, causing the immune cells to target hair follicles - but there are lots of people who cannot link their alopecia areata to a stressful event or period of stress. 

• Trichotillomania: otherwise known as the ‘hair-pulling disorder’, Trichotillomania is defined as an irresistible urge to pull out hair from your scalp, eyebrows, and other areas of your body. It’s known to be related to emotions, including stress, anxiety, tension, loneliness, and boredom. 

Stress and weight loss

Dr Bhavini Shah, GP at LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor explains: “While many people put on weight during periods of stress, others lose weight. Stress is known to cause a loss of appetite for some people, meaning they end up eating less food or slipping into poorer eating habits, such as snacking instead of eating full meals. 

“During the body’s ‘fight or flight’ response, cortisol levels rise and adrenaline is released to prepare the body for vigorous exercise. A side effect of this adrenaline surge is that it naturally suppresses appetite, which can further reduce food intake. 

“Some people may notice a feeling of unease in their stomach during times of stress. That’s because anxiety and worry can upset the delicate balance of digestion. In some cases, stress slows down digestion, causing bloating, pain, and constipation, while in others digestion will speed up, causing diarrhoea and frequent trips to the toilet.”

Signs of stress include:

• Loss of appetite
• Rapid weight loss
• Stress headaches
• Indigestion
• Aches and pains
• Tense muscles
• Mood changes
• Fatigue
• Difficulty falling or staying asleep
• Difficulty with short-term memory
• Increased heart rate
• Decreased sex drive
• Change in bowel movements
• Increase in illness

Stress and headaches or migraines

Stress is one of the most common triggers for tension headaches and migraine attacks. Dr Bhavini Shah explains:

"Stress is a common trigger for headaches, often due to increased muscle tension. Some people may also unknowingly grind their teeth when under stress. This physical tension, typically brought on by everyday stressors like work pressure or financial concerns, can lead to tension headaches as the muscles in the shoulders, neck, jaw, and head tighten in response.

“Stress can also trigger migraine headaches if you’re prone to them, and is one of the most commonly reported triggers for migraines. 

“To ease stress headaches and migraines, try activities to help you relax, such as exercise, yoga, and massages, or changing your sleeping habits as sleep problems like insomnia may be causing the headaches. Management of tension headaches and migraines can differ, so it is recommended to speak to a GP who can provide a treatment plan. If you have neck pain, a low, firm pillow can help, and hot or cold packs can ease tension. 

“Caffeine can also be a migraine trigger, although it is unclear why. Some studies suggest it is because it is a diuretic, which means it makes you urinate more and can dehydrate you (dehydration is a common migraine trigger). Caffeine withdrawal can also trigger migraine attacks, if you regularly consume caffeine and then suddenly stop."

Stress and high blood pressure

Stress and high blood pressure are linked through the body’s fight or flight response, which works to temporarily raise blood pressure by releasing hormones such as adrenaline and noradrenalise, increasing the heart rate and constricting blood vessels. 

Dr Bhavini Shah says: “While one-off instances of stress have a temporary effect on blood pressure, chronic stress can cause people to adopt unhealthy habits that can raise blood pressure and increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. These include; drinking too much alcohol or caffeine, eating unhealthy foods, eating too much or not moving enough.”

Stress and erectile dysfunction (ED)

An estimated 322 million men globally are projected to suffer from erectile dysfunction by the end of 2025, up from 152 million just 30 years ago (1995). This means one in 10 men will experience ED at some point in their lifetime.

Erectile dysfunction is not just caused by physical problems; stress, depression, pressures at work and performance anxiety can all contribute. 

Dr Bhavini Shah says: “Stress hormones can interfere with testosterone, which can lower your sex drive and lead to erection issues. If this is something that has happened in the past, that may also be on your mind and contribute to increased anxiety levels, exacerbating the cycle of erectile dysfunction. Stress and anxiety may also increase the likelihood of premature ejaculation.”

Stress and acne

While stress does not directly cause acne, it can worsen existing acne by changing a person’s hormone balance and affecting the skin’s immune function. This is because of the release of cortisol during stressful situations. 

Dr Christine Hall, Aesthetic Doctor at Taktouk Clinic, explains: “When cortisol levels remain elevated over long periods, the effects shift from helpful to harmful, disrupting multiple systems in the body - including the skin.

“Our skin barrier is central to healthy, resilient skin. Think of it as a brick wall: the skin cells are the bricks, while the fats (lipids) between them are the mortar. This structure locks in hydration while keeping irritants, bacteria, and pollutants out. Cortisol reduces the production of these lipids, weakening the barrier. The result? Skin that becomes dry, dehydrated, red, flaky, and often sore.

“Research also shows that cortisol damages the DNA within fibroblasts and keratinocytes — the cells responsible for producing collagen and essential structural proteins. Over time, this cellular damage leads to thinning of the skin, loss of volume, fine lines, wrinkles, and other visible signs of premature ageing.

“Stress doesn’t just accelerate ageing, it worsens existing skin conditions and slows the skin’s ability to heal. Chronic inflammation can aggravate eczema, rosacea, and psoriasis, while cortisol-driven stimulation of the sebaceous glands increases oil production. This excess oil, combined with clogged pores and dead skin cells, can fuel breakouts and even trigger or worsen acne.”

Expert tips on how to reduce stress

Dr Ravi Gill has shared her top tips for combating the symptoms of stress and stress levels.

1. “Combine rest with proactive strategies like setting boundaries, improving work-life balance, seeking support and addressing organisational issues to improve work-related stress. Simply taking time off can provide short-term relief, but it doesn’t address the root causes - such as workload, workplace culture, or lack of support - so stress often returns.”
   

2. “Try small daily activities such as keeping a gratitude journal to shift focus to positives, or listen to music or podcasts to quickly lift the mood. Even brief moments of laughter, whether through a funny video or chatting with a friend, can provide an immediate stress reset.”

3. “Creative outlets like drawing, cooking, or playing an instrument provide healthy distraction and expression.”

4. “Light stretching or yoga eases physical tension and practicing mindful breathing for just a few minutes can calm the mind.”

5. “Staying organised with to-do lists reduces mental clutter and setting aside screen-free time before bed improves sleep quality.”
   

6. “Implement stress-busting exercises into your daily routine, to signal safety and control back to the nervous system:
   Deep breathing (box breathing): Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4, and repeat - this slows the stress response and calms the body.
   Progressive muscle relaxation: Tense and then slowly release each muscle group from head to toe, which reduces physical tension linked to stress.
   Grounding (5-4-3-2-1 technique): Name 5 things you see, 4 things you feel, 3 things you hear, 2 things you smell, and 1 thing you taste - helping shift focus away from racing thoughts.
   Mindful pause: Close your eyes, take three slow breaths, and simply notice sensations in your body or sounds around you - these interrupt spiralling thoughts.
   Movement reset: Do a short burst of physical activity, like stretching, shaking out your arms, or walking briefly - this helps release built-up adrenaline.”
   

“Small daily routines and habits help reduce stress by creating structure, predictability, and a sense of control in otherwise busy or uncertain lives.

“Psychologically, routines lower decision fatigue by automating simple tasks, freeing mental energy for more important challenges. Even small habits - like making the bed, setting out clothes for the next day, or having a consistent morning ritual - signal order and stability, which can calm the nervous system. These practices also build momentum, giving people small wins that boost confidence and resilience.

“Over time, routines act as anchors, helping individuals manage stress more effectively by balancing demands with moments of grounding and self-care.”

Your Wellbeing Formula doesn't have to define you

Stress may be unavoidable, but how we respond to it is within our control. While each generation faces unique pressures, from retirement insecurity to social media burnout, these stressors don’t have to shape your wellbeing. By understanding the root causes of stress and adopting personalised coping strategies, it’s possible to tip the balance in your favour, whether that's by reconnecting with nostalgia, embracing movement, building social connections or setting boundaries with technologies. 

Dr. Ravi Gill explains: “Stress is not just about what’s happening to you, but how you’re equipped to handle it. With the right tools and habits, people can build resilience and shift from simply coping to actually thriving.”

Methodology

Wellbeing formula

We collected and analyzed 32,958 UK news articles over the past 12 months (August 2024 - August 2025) to identify common stressors and coping mechanisms across generations.

1. Step 1: Data Collection
   We built keyword queries (e.g. “Gen Z stress,” “Millennials burnout”) and scraped articles, headlines, and snippets from UK news sources.
2. Step 2: Stress Mentions Extraction
    Using a Large Language Model (LLM), we extracted generation mentions, stress type (factor vs. relief), quotes, themes, and sentiment scores.
3. Step 3: Thematic Clustering
    A second LLM pass mapped each mention to a consistent topic and subtopic (e.g. Financial Stress → Cost-of-living inflation).
4. Step 4: Analysis
    We identified the most common stressors and coping mechanisms—both shared (like inflation) and generational (e.g. social media for Gen Z, retirement insecurity for Boomers).

Survey data

UK stress causes and coping mechanisms surveys consisted of 1,000 UK adults (500 men and 500 women). Surveys conducted August 2025.
