“I feel stressed" and "I feel anxious" are often said as if they are the same thing. A working definition of stress is "a natural response to present danger." Anxiety however is usually connected to the fear of losing something or having less of something in the future. Stress = Present Danger Anxiety = Future Danger” — Matt Purcell
