Stress is the emotional and physical tension brought on a person’s reaction to the demands of life. Stress frequently causes anxiety, irritability, and inability to concentrate. Stress can also lead to headaches, and a rapid heartbeat.[1]
Stress also refers to the emphasis given to some syllables in words. [2]
