Psychological Stress
Psychological stress is a heightened emotional, mental, and physiological response to a perceived threat or challenge. It is a common and very real experience that has short- and long-term effects on physical and mental health. Chronic stress is associated with a variety of health problems, such as depression, anxiety, heart disease, and digestive issues. Stress can also have positive effects, such as increased motivation, creativity, and productivity. Stress management techniques, such as relaxation techniques, positive thinking, and exercise, can help alleviate stress and its associated problems.
