The reason that we are looking into the relationship that stress had on our mental and physical health is that we are all college students so it is important to us to understand our stress, and to control it to help our health. We look to our peers and see significant levels of stress that seem to make people less happy overall. This made us question why people get stressed in the first place? Is it their class load, their workload, or anything else that they go through day to day? To answer these questions, we have looked into several different people's perspectives to see what they have discovered on the issue. Along with this we also conducted our own research to figure out our own conclusions.
