As shown by the bar graph there are four major stress causes in Canada for those aged between 25 and 75 and over.
Working too much causes stress for 26% of those aged 25 to 54. Money worries account for 15% while 5% of this group have no particular reason for stressing and only 4% are worried about their health. 55 to 64 year olds stress for no particular reason (17%) while 2% less overwork and this causes them stress. Money and health account for 10% of the stress experienced by this group.
The greatest cause of stress for 65 to 74 year olds is 'no particular reason' (32%). 25% have their own health problems to worry about. Working too much causes very few people in this age group to stress (3%). Finally the oldest age group also stresses for no particular reason the most (34%) and their own health (24%). Not having enough money and overworking are not important stress factors ( less than 5%).
To sum up, the elderly stress for no particular reason and worry about their health while the youngest age group stresses due to overwork.
