3. What Is
STRESS
STRESS is a normal human reaction that happens
to everyone. When you experience changes or
challenges (stressors), your body produces physical
and mental responses. That’s stress. Stress
responses help your body adjust to new situations.
Stress can be positive, keeping us alert, motivated
and ready to avoid danger. For example, if you have
an important test coming up, a stress response
might help your body work harder and stay awake
longer. But stress becomes a problem when
stressors continue without relief or periods of
relaxation.
