It is important to stretch before exercising because for example if you were to be doing a strenuous workout it causes the blood vessels in your legs to expand. Which then causes more blood into your legs and feet. If you were to stop after a while of exercising your heart rate slows down and blood can pool into your lower body which could cause you to possibly faint.
Some people take up negative coping methods such as consuming too much caffeine. People with high stress often use it to jump start there energy, and make them more productive, which can lead to a caffeine addiction. Others smoke, or drink in excess which again turns into a drug habit into addiction. Some people compulsively spend money thinking material things will relieve their stress. Finally, one of the most common negative responses to stress would be emotional eating, which can lead to obesity and other health problems.
