Why is stress from exercising good for our body/heart but stress from anxiety isn’t?
In: 10
The main difference is that you can stop exercising, rest, recover, etc etc. Prolonged anxiety keeps the body I’m a state of heightened alertness that it never backs down from. It’s the fact that you stay wound up forever and don’t calm back down to heal and recover that makes that kind of stress bad.
Some stress, followed by rest is good. Some stress forever all the time, is bad.
