Chronic stress result when you wear pressure like a badge, not realising it&#8217;s slowly eating you up. </p><p>This isn&#8217;t a story about weakness&#8212;it&#8217;s about awareness.

The other drains you. If you&#8217;ve been calling chronic stress endurance, I want to tell you that it&#8217;s not, and it's not even a &#8220;strength,&#8221;.  This might be the moment to rethink it&#8212;before your body makes that decision for you.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.myhealthycode.com/p/how-well-can-you-manage-stress/comments&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Leave a comment&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.myhealthycode.com/p/how-well-can-you-manage-stress/comments"><span>Leave a comment</span></a></p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
