NOTE

Stress Is a Good Thing

Stress can be both a good and bad thing. In small bursts, stress can be healthy as it acts as a signal for action. The body releases hormones like noradrenaline in response to stress, which can be beneficial in prompting action. However, prolonged exposure to stress can lead to an accumulation of damaging hormones and neurotransmitters. Recognizing stress and taking action to address its cause is crucial. Stress can manifest in various ways beyond just visible signs like panic, such as changes in eating habits, sex drive, irritability, fatigue, and anxiety. Individuals under stress may exhibit self-centered behavior, which is often misunderstood as selfishness. It is important to understand these subtle indicators of stress to address its underlying causes effectively.
