Stress is the feeling of being overwhelmed or unable to cope with mental or emotional pressure. In medicine, it's defined as the body's response to physical, mental, or emotional pressure.
Stress causes chemical changes in the body that can raise blood pressure, heart rate, and blood sugar levels. It may also lead to feelings of frustration, anxiety, anger, or depression.
Stress is our body's response to pressure. Many different situations or life events can cause stress. It is often triggered when we experience something new, unexpected or that threatens our sense of self, or when we feel we have little control over a situation. We all deal with stress differently.
