Stress is defined as the physiological (or physical) and emotional responses to

significant or unexpected change or disruption in one’s life (Payne, et al., 2005)

It may also refer to “what you feel when you react to pressure, either from the
outside world (school, family, friends) or from yourself i.e. wanting to fit in, wanting to do
well in school.

The word Stressor refers to the things that make a person stressed. There are two
different kinds of stress – eustress and distress.

1. Eustress refers to a positive and healthy response of the body from a stressor.
It produces good effects to one’s well-being. For example, a person, who studied
for long hours then took and got an outstanding grade in the exam, may feel
happiness and enjoyment.

2. Distress refers to a negative reaction of the body towards a given stressor. It

may cause problems in health, alter the mood and emotions, and even affect
the way a person thinks. For example, when a person woke up late for work, he
or she may feel anger and disappointments.
