Even Though Stress Is Commonly Acknowledged With Negative Connotations, There Are At Least Two Known Types Of Stress That Anyone May Experience. These Two Types Of Stress Can Be Termed As Distress And Eustress.
Distress Is The "Negative" Experience That People Tend To Relate To Stress. Some Signs And Symptoms Of Distress May Include But Are Not Limited To Variations Of: Anxiety Such As Over-Analysis Paralysis, Depression Such As Struggling With Interest Or Focus In Present Day Realities, Fatigue Such As Burnout, etc.
Eustress Is The "Positive" Experience That Is Less Acknowledged. Some Signs And Symptoms Of Eustress May Include But Are Not Limited To: Excitement Such As Accomplishing Goals, Internal And External Awareness Such As Interest And Concentration, High Levels Of Beneficial Energy Such As Efficiency And Productivity, etc.
Stress Is Unavoidable Because We Are Programmed With A Fight, Flight, Freeze, Or Fawning Survival Mechanism. Since Every Strength Has An Equally Attached Weakness, It's Best To Focus On Internal And External Strengths. The Leading Probable Cause Of Distress Is Self Neglect Such As Self Sacrifice, People Pleasing, Repression, etc. The Leading Probable Motivator Of Eustress Is Enacting A Desire For Change Such As Accomplishments. Improvement Comes As A Result Of Attending To Self Love Practices. Fidgeting Has Been Proven To Be Useful While Misunderstood In Terms Of Processing. Anxiety And Excitement Can Be Exhibited In Similar Ways Because It's A Similar Type Of Energy. It's Important To Emphasize Which Type Of Stress Is Actually Being Experiencing Since Distorted Perceptions Of Reality Due To Our Past Conditioning And Lack Of More Evidential Information Such As Making Assumptions, Jumping To Conclusions, Or Confirmation Bias Can Get In The Way Of Evidence-Based Reasoning Or Rational Thinking/Feeling. Eustress Activities Such As In Recreational Therapy Or Exercise Can Help Us To Produce Feel Good Chemicals In Our Body Such As Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, And Endorphin. Feel Good Chemicals Are Extremely Important To Experience In Order To Help Counter Potentially Toxic Chemicals Such As Cortisol That Are Released During Acute And Chronic Times Of Distress. Recreational Therapy Helps Prove That Aiming To Have More Fun In Everything We Do Regardless Of What We Are Experiencing Helps Encourage Long Term Results Of Eustress. Embrace Yourself As You Explore Self Awareness In A Life-Long Journey Involving Stress. Strive For More Fun In Every Part Of Your Life If You Desire To Experience More Eustress As Opposed To Distress.
