Do you ever feel a stomachache during a test? Are you
ever so worried about something that you even have a headache or can’t sleep at
night? If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you
are worried about something. You may feel angry, sad, scared, or afraid —all
this can give you a stomachache or a headache.
There are different kinds of stress. Some kinds of
stress are good and others are bad. Good stress may happen when someone asks
you to answer questions in class or when you have to give a report. This kind
of stress can help you to finish things better.
However, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too
long. You may not feel well if a family member is sick, if you’re having
problems at school, or if anything else makes you upset every day. That
kind of stress isn’t going to help you.
The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced
life. If you get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for
fun, you’ll feel less stress.
