Can a child die because of stress? Are there any known cases?

Think of stress as a bullet fired from a gun. The bullet does not actually kill anyone, the injuries the bullet creates kills the victim. Stress is like a bullet. If it hits hard enough and at the right time the victim will sustain injuries capable of dead. Stress management is a basic human instinct. I would believe this to be possible in a child, but i would further investigate the child's overall mental and physical well being before going any further. Extreme cases of stress in adolescence have strong connections with psychotic and psychopathic behavior. Talk therapy is an invaluable tool in dealing with situations like these. Find a psychologist the child relates with and feels comfortable with.Can a child die because of stress? Are there any known cases?
heck yeah. I couldnt imagine being a kid nowdays. BUT it all depends on the product causing the stress. Boy trouble, the child will live, making typical childlike mistakes that you learn from, the child will most likely live. If an elder is abusing a child extensively to a point of a nervous breakdown, that could cause death by stress. ANYBODY can have a heart attack. Kids have heart conditions just like they have cancer and a lot of other disturbing illness they do not deserve. If you think this child has a heart condition and you know they are under an intense amount of stress, you need to take this child to the doctor and have them examined before something bad happens.Can a child die because of stress?

No I am sure there have been no such cases.. unless a child was relentelssly driven by the parents.. to do more and more.. and that could cause such traumatic depression in the child to not want to go on living with such pressure driven parents... Stress could cause a child with a birth defect.. a weak heart.. perhaps to die.. Emotional stress is worse than physical stress.. In cases of stress anyone can get depression and depression if not dealt with, could lead to suicide.. in that way it could lead to death brought on by depression with suicide as a result.. due to emotional stress...
Stress may be an indirect cause. They could be stressed, and then commit suicide, or...


It could mess with the heart. The blood pressure..

the stress hormones in a young child havent developed fully is the way i understand it to be..this would be unlikely...
Mono can be caused by stress. And Mono can be fatal. So yeah, I guess.





But there are things you can do to prevent that from happening.





Like keeping the child from sharing drinks with other people.
Yes, not only kids but adults can did also.





There are many ailments connected with high stress levels, such as a rupturing appendix.
Uhmm maybe if the child becomes too stressed out it can commit suicide xD

No. If they can, they mind as well just kill themselves.
