    Stress can be physical, mental, or emotional tensions. Anxiety, which is commonly found to accompany stress, is an uneasiness caused by danger or misfortune. These unhealthy disorders may be anything from feelings of uneasiness, to fears of extreme terror.

    Without a doubt, stress affects health in both our mental and in our physical state. The constant worrying of issues keep our nervous system on notice. This in turn, begins to work against our healthy lifestyle and if left unattended, can ultimately lead to greater and more severe disorders as well. The ongoing results from the lack of treatment can lead to severe damage to our physical bodies. This can be anything from a mild increase in blood pressure, the hardening of arteries, to possible heart disease, along with other physical ailments.

    Stress is a huge medical thing.It can make your sleep less.And when sleeping wake up often in the middle of sleeping.Makes you forget the basic things like washing your hands after your the bathroom.(which is a huge crisis of being sick) And for some people they start to break out because of stress and then more break outs because of the stress of breaking out.
