Stress manifests itself in many different ways. You need to take a look at many components that create such a huge overwhelm that push you into a stress zone.

But there are many other contributing factors as well: a cluttered drawer, a walk not taken, an uneasy relationship with a new co-worker, an insurance claim denied for no discernible reason, another work lunch eaten at your desk while rushing to meet a deadline – stress generated by the everyday challenges of everyday life and the moment-to-moment choices we make on a day-to day-basis.
