        It can be. Bad stress is obviously more detrimental to your health. As long as your not stressed out all the time it's fine. If you find yourself feeling anxious 24/7 that's probably a sign you need to manage your stress better.

    Yes. Weddings, birthday celebrations, babies etc. Those are all forms of Eustress.

    That's because it is a form of stress. Not all stress is negative. Eustress is the stress that occurs that makes you feel good, like having sex. Distress is the stress that makes you feel bad.

    Well they say a passionate kiss takes hours off the end of your life...How about the Latin quote "quod me nutrit me destruit."

    Depends on how you react to it I think. If you get anxious then it's probably stressful, but if you stay calm it's probably not a big stress factor.
