Stress is what you feel when you have to handle more than you are used to. When you are stressed, your body responds as though you are in danger. It makes hormones that speed up your heart, make you breathe faster, and give you a burst of energy.

This presentation serves as an introduction to stress management. Nothing much in depth has been covered, but a solid foundation for an understanding has been made. It was made as per guidelines for an oral presentation and was uploaded in the same form.
What is stress? Stress is a part of being alive. A total absence of stress can be achieved only in death. Stress is the "wear and tear" our minds and bodies experience.

"Stress Management" is the art of taking care of oneself. So, become aware of your stressors and your physical and emotional reactions.

Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way.
Stress is the “wear and tear” in our minds and bodies experience as we attempt to cope with our continually changing environment
Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand.
It can be caused by both good and bad experiences. When people feel stressed by something going on around them, their bodies react by releasing chemicals into the blood. These chemicals give people more energy and strength,
which can be a good thing if their stress is caused by physical danger.
Relocation, new phase of life, birth of a child, promotion, career change, marriage...etc, are some examples of situations causing stress. Positive intervention of any kind saves us from falling prey to stress and related disorders.
Stress is a natural feeling of not being able to cope with specific demands and events. However, It’s natural and normal to be stressed sometimes but long-term stress can cause physical symptoms, emotional symptoms and unhealthy behaviors.
My limbs quail, my mouth goes dry, my body shakes and my hair stands on end”

Editor's Notes
As
If a boy has gone for a outing with her GF and they met an accident, and girl has broken her leg, now the boy has to inform her parents, his own parents, deal with the police, deal with the local public etc… just imagine the amount of nervousness – specially if his/her parents are like me – who have very fixed ideas about children and talk very little, similarly how impatient a girl or a boy is before his first dating. And if on the first date the girl asks for a dinner in a five star hotel, that too in a taxi to Dr Bansal’s son who hardly has 100 bucks in his pocket – think about his self image – it will certainly go down (does it mean I should keep 1000 in his pocket so that he can entertain many GFs not only one !)
This decreased low self image coupled with nervousness and impatient behavior will lead to frustrations and this can be manifested either by depression when after returning he will not talk to any one – will sit very quite – looking in sky – or to the vacant wall – as if he is trying to count brush marks on the wall. Or he will start reacting violently – throwing objects and taking even the trivial remarks as very serious assaults on his personality.
Stress is a term we use to describe an imbalance between the demands of life and that person’s ability to meet those demands.
Stress, like anything else, can follow typical developmental stages.
Children usually pick up on our moods quickly. They are usually the first to know something is not right. Then they begin to worry and assume that the thing wrong is their fault.
