What events commonly cause stress?
Health Education Health 100 Version 3 / Common Causes of Stress
"Stress can result from short-term events such as missing transportation or arguing with a partner, as well as long-term problems involving money or employment. Major life events such as the death of a spouse, divorce, illness, injury, marriage, pregnancy, retirement, job loss, or incarceration can also be stressful. Even positive events may create stress because they require adjustment and responsibility."
