The Side Effects Of Stress
Can Stress Affect
Your Overall Health?
The side effects of stress are not always obvious to others, but they can be just as serious as the physical symptoms of stress, if they are not addressed...Psychological stress can affect your relationships, your productivity at work and even your ability to function normally.
People under severe stress can behave in ways that just don’t make sense--unless you understand that they are completely distracted, and unable to think clearly.
Stress can affect our ability to perform well.
On the other hand, distress is the negative type of stress--the stress that we don’t handle well, or the stress that puts us on "overload". Most of the time, we simply call it "stress". Or "Burn-out".

Does Stress Affect Everyone Equally?
Unfortunately there is no way to predict how stress will affect you, as the physical and mental effects of stress are different for different people. For example:- Different personality types are more vulnerable to stress.
- People cope with stress differently.
- There are many types of stressors! Each person faces different obstacles in his life. And each person interprets an event differently.
- There are many ways of coping with stress. Some are healthy--some are not.
Because each person has her own set of values and beliefs, her own ways of coping, and her own life events, there is no way to predict what the side effects of stress will be for that person. On the other hand, learning to use healthy stress management techniques, including changing one’s belief system (if necessary), will go a long way toward a healthy, happy lifestyle!
