Answer 2

Stress can be positive or negative, depending how you respond to it is a true statement.

Explanation:

Any stress- positive (eustress) or negative (distress) is completely discerned according to the situation where it raises, depending upon the response to the stress, and how it is coped and managed.

A positive response to a negative stressor will change it to a positive stressor. Positive stressors are constructive and will drive a person to do things in a positive way.

Proper understanding and perception of the stressing situation, the reasons behind it, developing a positive attitude and mindset to resolve the situation, devising plans and executing them to resolve the situation are the ways to respond to a negative stress and change it to positive stress.
