We hear a lot about mental health and coping with stress but what exactly is stress? Stress is your body’s reaction to any change. It is a normal reaction and the change can be both positive or negative. People feel stress when bad things happen but they can also be stressed when they are getting married or having a baby. Stress can be short-term or chronic, where it continues on for longer parts of time without much relief in between. Too much stress can cause harmful effects on the body.
