TEXT
There is a famous expression in English: "Stop the
world, I want to get off!" This expression refers to a
feeling of panic, or stress, that makes a person want
to stop whatever they are doing, try to relax, and
become calm again. 'Stress' means pressure or
tension. It is one of the most common causes of health
problems in modern life. Too much stress results in
physical, emotional, and mental health problems.
There are numerous physical effects of stress. Stress
can affect the heart. It can increase the pulse rate,
make the heart miss beats, and can cause high blood
pressure. Stress can affect the respiratory system. It
can lead to asthma. It can cause a person to breathe
too fast, resulting in a loss of important carbon
dioxide. Stress can affect the stomach. It can cause
stomach aches and problems digesting food. These
are only a few examples of the wide range of illnesses
and symptoms resulting from stress.
Emotions are also easily affected by stress. People
suffering from stress often feel anxious. They may
have panic attacks. They may feel tired all the time.
When people are under stress, they often overreact to
little problems. For example, a normally gentle parent
under a lot of stress at work may yell at a child for
dropping a glass of juice. Stress can make people angry, moody, or nervous.
Long-term stress can lead to a variety of serious
mental illnesses. Depression, an extreme feeling of
sadness and hopelessness, can be the result of
continued and increasing stress. Alcoholism and
other addictions often develop as a result of overuse
of alcohol or drugs to try to relieve stress. Eating
disorders, such as anorexia, are sometimes caused by
stress and are often made worse by stress. If stress is
allowed to continue, then one's mental health is put at
risk.
It is obvious that stress is a serious problem. It attacks
the body. It affects the emotions. Untreated, it may
eventually result in mental illness. Stress has a great
influence on the health and well-being of our bodies,
our feelings, and our minds. So, reduce stress: stop
the world and rest for a while.

the emotions?
1. It can make people feel nervous
