Stress More Information McGauvran Student Union Building, 3rd Floor, South Campus Tel.
Stress is a response of the body to a variety of internal and external stimuli.
External triggers may include a job change, a move to a new city, marriage, death of a loved one, or an illness in your family. Internal stimuli may include physical or mental discomfort. Personality traits, such as a need to strive for perfection or to please others, may also cause stress. Stress can produce either negative or positive reactions. For instance, you may strive for perfection because you feel inadequate, and the constant pressure you put on yourself may ultimately work against you.
