  • Depends on the health issue.

    Pain related issues = definite increase in stress.

    Depression = lowering in stress (depression blocks stimuli)

    Colds etc. = usually lowers stress if you allow it. Of course some people just plough on regardless and get totally frazzled when they needed rest.

    I do accept that "rest" is an awkward concept to explain to a young family or demanding boss. I would however recommend being ill when your ill.
