      Also it. An feel like a combination of anxiety, dread, and excitement all at once. Your palms may get sweaty, your heart rate may increase, and you may feel that fluttery nervous stomach feeling. Anything that causes apprehension or fear can lead to feelings of nervousness.

    1) Stress is when you feel worried or uncomfortable about somethings. These worries in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, frustrated, scared or anxious — which can give you a stomachache or a headache.
    2) Feeling anxious can happen when we feel nervous, frightened or uneasy about something. It is okay to feel this way from time to time, as it part of our body’s natural response to a situation we are not comfortable with.

    1.) Stress is a reaction stress is a feeling or a reaction of getting to much pressure and head ache an example of pressure is reading to much books because reading books are boring for most people and if you read to much then you get pressure and a head ache for a moment.
    2.) Anxiety is when you think you can’t do something and then it shatters your self esteem and it makes your day worser and you get overwhelmed and really worried. e.g. So your teacher gives you homework of 1000 words and you say “ There is no way I can do that” but your friend can do it with all of the pressure.

    Negatives: Distress can lead to physical symptoms including headaches, upset stomach, elevated blood pressure, chest pain, and problems sleeping. Research suggests that stress also can bring on or worsen certain symptoms or diseases.
    Posotives: Manageable stress increases alertness and performance. And by encouraging the growth of stem cells that become brain cells, stress improves memory. The increase in stem cells and neuron generation makes sense from an adaptive point of view.

    Common anxiety signs and symptoms include: Feeling nervous, restless or tense. Having a sense of impending danger, panic or doom. Having an increased heart rate.
