Eustress is the stress that comes with good or positive events such as a job promotion, a new romantic relationship, or starting college. It is different than the stress that comes from coping with negative events such as financial troubles, concerns about a loved one’s health, or other worries. Both types of stress cause similar physical responses such as a nervous stomach, roller-coaster emotions, and some excessive sweating. The difference is in how those responses affect the person experiencing them. Stress from negative sources usually makes it harder for the person to cope, while eustress is accompanied by positive feelings such as excitement and eagerness that help in dealing with the situation. However, both types of stress do require a certain level of self-care to ensure the best possible outcomes. |
