Distress can be of different kinds. It may arise due to material needs not being fulfilled, or from situations beyond one’s control, such as acts of nature. Distress may be due to a man-made situation, like a conflict or an accident. Or it may arise from  emotional stress, such as fear of failure, loss of a near one, illness, heart-break or a negative emotion.
