If you are interested in the world of physics, you will probably have a totally different view of what stress is. To illustrate: mostly when the term is used in these disciplines, it refers to the force(s), that produce any kind of tension, strain on a physical body, where the stress can be accurately measured and expressed in units of force divided by units of area!

If only, this simplistic formula(s) and calculations, expressions and values,  could explain in full, help do away with, cope better and tell us what to do in order to handle the impact and effects of our stress, tension, strain (emotionally, cognitively, mentally, physically, biologically, holistically!) … If only… we could cope with STRESS better!

We would be well ahead further than ever assuredly, in coping with it effectively, once and for all, for good. Yet, it remains ever elusive and mysterious.

Most of us merely accept that stress is part of life and that we just need to toughen up. Others are oblivious to its effects and realities, even in denial, depressed without knowing why, ignorant to what is causing their underlying stress and not even aware that both internal, external, positive, negative stress can/do impact them, their lives, others, relationships, environment, health, wellbeing, all aspects and areas of their lives.

Here is an illustrative definition for this ‘troubling’ concept from our modern lives (wider than the aforementioned physics definition!):

(** NOTE: see reference section for full citation for quotes, sources to shed some more light on the topic, suggested readings, online links and other helpful texts, materials, guides)

(stress) (stres) 1. forcibly exerted influence; pressure.      2. force per unit area, which may cause strain (qv) on an object. 3. in dentistry, the pressure of the upper teeth against the lower in mastication. 4. a state of physiological or psychological strain caused by adverse stimuli, physical, mental, or emotional, internal or external, that tend to disturb the functioning of an organism and which the organism naturally desires to avoid;

These negative phrasing and choice of descriptors accurately captures what STRESS is really about. It deals with all those unwelcome things, objects, people, complications, events, effects that inevitably affect us (adversely/negatively), causing physiological OR psychological STRAIN, pressure, tension or stress, that leads to alteration in normal physical functioning, that gets the fight or flight instinct and response up and ready, keeping us on edge, annoyed, tense, disturbed, uneasy, ready to ‘bail’, so to speak, feeling overwhelmed, desperate, even depressed (in some cases).
