Software development does not have to be a stressful experience. I'm sorry that you believe it does as that implies that your experience has largely been stressful.

In my mind, that perspective is a huge red flag for me when I'm on the job hunt. If you are trying to stress me out in an interview rather than make me comfortable then I have to thank you for letting me know before I started working there that you would be exhausting both physically and emotionally.
