Throughout our lives, our body experiences stress. Whether it's getting up in the morning after staying up late or learning of the death of a loved one, stress is part of our daily lives. Scientists have conducted numerous studies examining different stressors and their effects on the human body. Our bodies have unconsciously developed their own ways to deal with the stressors in our lives. Stress is a daily occurrence, but sometimes the body has difficulty coping with it properly and becomes depressed due to the lack of motivation we feel. We face stress every day without even realizing it. Stress is the body's response to any demand that seems threatening or challenging. There are two types of stress: eustress and distress. Eustress is considered beneficial stress, for example running or cycling, provided it is moderate exercise. Distress is unpleasant and is linked to negative emotions. Stress is inevitable in life as it would mean complete absence of stimulation, also known as death. Stress can come from many factors in our lives. For example, cataclysmic events are called chronic stressors, including death, war, birth, divorce, etc. Other stressors include work stress, conflicts and the hassles of daily life. Our body's natural response when experiencing stress is known as adaptation. Coping is our body's attempt to deal with stress in the most effective way that varies with different stressors. There are two main forms of coping: emotion-focused and problem-focused. Emotion-focused forms of coping focus on a response to the stressor; while problem-focused forms of coping focus on the stressor itself and its management. Emotion-focused forms of coping are...... middle of paper ...... but they are powerless at an abnormal level in order to escape something painful. When a person uses this as a defense mechanism, their ability to feel motivated is hindered. When this happens, the person will not be able to perform daily tasks, which can cause depression. The cycle is endless and once immersed in it, a person will find it difficult to break it. Stress is part of our daily lives. Our body may not show that it is stressed, but when you take a closer look at your actions, you will realize that your body is automatically coping with the stressor. Other times, you're forced to deal with stress, even if it's the last thing you want to do. When your body is struggling with stress, it is very easy to become depressed. Therefore, you should never let stress build up and deal with it as early as possible to ensure your health and well-being..
