I have never heard of this term until Wednesday’s
class. I thought all stress was bad stress and this article cleared my ignorance.
Good stress is described as something that we need in order to live a healthy
life. Without good stress life would not be as exciting and would leave a lot
of people unhappy. The key to finding good stress is doing things that make you
fell alive and happy. Some good stress activities are: Roller coasters, and
first dates, etc… Too much good stress can be bad and cause chronic stress
problems. The advice from this article is to be in tune with yourself and know
when enough is enough. Good stress is a problem with thrill seekers. These
people can never stop looking for something that excites and causes them to be
full of adrenaline.
I was wondering if professional athletes or even other
professionals who perform in front of a crowd suffer from chronic stress. They
are playing a sport that they love and I am sure some still get nervous before
games. With that being said, they must have their adrenaline running almost
every night. On top of that the professionals also have to deal with the bad
stress of things like paparazzi and usual stressors like family. I wonder what percentage
of professionals that perform in front of a crowd suffer from chronic stress
