Stress doesn't wake you up. What happens is if you wake up and you're thinking I'm stressed, your brain is reading signals like elevated heart rate, elevated respiratory rate, um endor the the endorphins of the muscles getting tense. It's reading these physical signs and then because we live in the society we live in, stress is readily available. We can fill that space really fast. But what what was happening was it wasn't the stress that woke you up.
