"Psychological science has revealed that long-term stress creates risks for a variety of mental health challenges, may make us feel more sensitive even to daily hassles, can have broader impacts on our general life outlook and goals, and affects the body’s physiological response to stressors in ways that have notable implications for our physical health.

The 2023 Stress in America survey reports...

" ...adults in the United States rate their average stress level at 5 out of 10, and 43% say their stress keeps piling up."
