What is stress?
We define stress as “body’s uncertain response to the demand made on it.” On one hand stress provides the outlet to express our talent and energies and helps us to pursue happiness while on the other hand it causes illness and mellows down our strength. When something unpleasant happens around us, it puts us in a state of strain called stress.
What are stressors?
Stressors are situations events, or external factors that cause us to be stressed. Stressors can vary in a wide degree from physical, psychological, financial, social stressors to academic, familial or clinical stressors.

Stress is your body’s method of responding to any type of demand. Stress can be caused by both positive and negative experiences such as positive stress about a wedding, to negative stress about how you will pay for the wedding. When people feel as though they are stressed their bodies react in a chemical manner by releasing chemicals into the blood. These Chemicals will increase your strength and energy which can be a great thing if the stress were caused by a physical danger. But this can also be a very bad thing if their stress is a response to emotional stimuli which does not allow an outlet for the additional energy and strength. Here are some causes of stressful stimuli and how they affect people.
