Can you look over my written response and let me know if it is good and if it meets all the requirements?

The requirements are:

-Describe healthy and unhealthy stress.

-Is all stress unhealthy?

Explain the difference between unhealthy stress and healthy stress. Include examples of both.

-Include discussion of your own experience with these kinds of stress.

As a physical, mental, or emotional state, stress can result in both favourable and unfavourable outcomes. Psychologists refer to healthy stress as short-term stress or "distress". It is the type of stress that we feel or experience when we are excited. Unhealthy stress is a long term side effect of physical, mental, or emotional stress that we normally think is "stress" or "bad stress." This kind of stress may also lead to evolutionary situations where we ultimately feel it is serious and unavoidable.

As we live in a highly diverse world, we may experience both healthy and unhealthy stress. Stress that is healthy gives us a sense of happiness and excitement. It is not a threat or a concern, but rather it is a rapid change of impulse and surge of hormones. We normally experience a great feeling as children when riding a Ferris wheel since it would increase our pulse rate, but the excitement during the ride will compromise that feeling and will cause us to shout in satisfaction and contentment. Meanwhile, unhealthy stress would result in uneasiness and distractions which could lead to anxiety or depression whenever a dilemma would not be resolved for a long period of time.
