"Good" stress can act as a motivator to get done what needs to be done. However, it is also associated with good things. Stress that leaves us feeling exhausted, irritable, and overwhelmed is "bad" stress and it is associated with negative events. While we have different emotional reactions to positive stress and negative stress, the reaction we have physically is the same. It increases cortisol levels, which can lead to high blood pressure, cardio-vascular stress, and depression, just to name a few.
