How Can We Help People Deal With Stress And Anxiety Healthily?
Stress is perceived threats or challenges triggered by internal and external factors. It originates from the body’s natural “fight or flight” response, which evolved to help humans deal with immediate physical dangers. In modern times, stress is often caused by non-physical threats such as work pressure, financial problems, relationship issues, or personal expectations when the brain perceives a situation as threatening, preparing the body to fight or flee the threat, including cardiovascular diseases, anxiety, depression, and weakened immune function.
