Thanks for answers so far.

Perhaps I should have clarified I meant in terms of mental illness, where straight-forward cause and effect don't mean squat. I don't think it's as simple as one being "real-time" and one being anticipatory, it's more than just semantics.

I probably need to re-think and ask this in a different way. But that's okay, I won't lie awake at night worrying about it!

Personally, I think stress and anxiety are 2 different things completely. You can be under a lot of stress and not feel anxious. I do think that stress can bring on anxiety and think it is one of the biggest causes of anxiety. We live in a very stressful world and the 2 things feed off of each other.

Need a little more context. Stress may induce anxiety thru conditioning. Like if you are stressed, it may produce anxiety due to the anticipation of more stress. Stress is uncomfortablness due to change (during) and anxiety is anticipation of upcoming stress (before the fact). However the two are intertwined
