The three types of stress are:
Acute stress: This is short-term stress, usually caused by a new challenge or situation. You might feel stressed out at the moment but once everything is resolved, be it in a few hours or a day, you’ll feel calm and relaxed.
Episodic acute stress: This type of stress occurs when you have frequent acute stress. There’s no set date or time when you encounter this kind of stress, which results in making you feel like everything is happening at the same time.
Chronic stress: If your stressors continue for a long period of time, resulting in chronic stress. You might feel like your stresses are never going to end and find it difficult to improve your current situation.
