Physical, behavioral, and performance symptoms of stress are described. The document recommends healthy diet, exercise, social support, humor, relaxation, and positive thinking as coping strategies.
The effects of stress
Stress can have negative physical, emotional, and mental health effects. Physically, stress can impact the heart, respiratory system, and stomach, potentially leading to increased blood pressure, asthma, or digestive issues. Emotionally, people under stress often feel anxious, tired, and may overreact or become angry or moody.
