And when the stress degenerates to high blood pressure and is still unchecked, it would cause a cardiac arrest and stroke. Rest is very important so that we don't end up stressing and killing ourselves. Find time to do the things that gives you joy to do.

Physical signs of stress include headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, rapid heartbeat, sweating, and digestive issues. Stress triggers the release of cortisol and adrenaline, leading to high blood pressure, weakened immunity, and sleep disturbances. Chronic stress can contribute to heart disease, obesity, and other health problems.
