Tension is commonly used to refer to mental stress or anxiety. It can be caused by various reasons and manifests itself in various ways. Tension can be mainly divided into two types:

1. Psychological Tension:

This type of tension affects the human mind and is usually caused by some mental stress, worry, anxiety, or emotion.
