STRESS-“The silent killer” or “Useful EUSTRESS”

There is no definition of stress that everyone agrees on, what is stressful for one person be pleasurable or have little effect on others. We all react to stress differently.

Thus Stress is  the perceived threat to one’s physical or Psychological well being. Because of the silent nature of the perceived threat, stress is often called a “silent killer”.

Stress is caused due to secretion of adrenalin into the blood in response to danger. This chemical increases our breathing, heart beat etc and gives the extra energy to fight the threat and without this adrenalin cycle,  life will not be possible as we may not respond  to a threat and may be harmed. Thus Stress is useful and is called”EUSTRESS”.

If STRESS is USEFUL ; then why It KILLS?

As discussed earlier, when the threat goes away, the cycle should get cut off and we should come to normal. It kills due to following, the cycle does not get cut off :-

  • In cases of Psychological cases
  • The Modern Life-intensity and frequency of threat is high
  • The Make of an Individual

Thus all Stress starts as EUSTRESS and then convert into DISTRESS.
