It is not the stress that can harm. Rather our mindset towards stress can decide whether it can impact our health. Because our mindset influences the way of coping with this stress.

So just because you are experiencing a stressful situation, doesn’t indicate that it is damaging your mind. The damage of our mind mainly depends on the approach we are presenting towards stress.
