According to reports in various news outlets last week, Tennessee is the most stressed-out state in America.
And it doesn’t help to flee, unless you’ve got time to kill and a tank of gas. Alabama ranked No. 2, and Georgia is No. 7 among states where people have the worst stress. Yes, friends, if stress has a face, we are living on its red, bulbous nose.
The state stress rankings, as reported on CNBC.com, purport to measure stress involving money, work, health and family. If you believe the results, people in good old Tennessee are more stressed than people in hair-on-fire New York.
Whatever.
If you ask me, rankings like this are what’s stressing people out.
