Stress occurs when the demands of a situation, whether physical or psychological, are perceived to exceed our ability to cope effectively. This can lead to a range of physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms, and can vary in intensity and duration depending on the individual's perception of the stressor(s) and their available coping strategies. Anxiety and trauma are related to stress but not interchangeable terms, while stimuli refer to any form of sensory input that can trigger a response in the nervous system.
