Stress black outline icon

About the Stress black outline icon

A head shown in profile with a jagged lightning bolt cutting down through the top of the skull, the bust resting on a small flat stand. The bolt reads instantly as pressure, mental strain, headache and emotional overload. Use it for mental health resources, employee wellbeing pages, therapy and counseling sites, burnout survey results and psychology presentation slides.

Clean uniform strokes keep the face featureless, so attention falls on the bolt breaking the crown outline. The stand gives the shape a stable base and balances the composition. It sits well next to brain, meditation and anxiety icons. At small sizes the bolt still reads, so 24 px works for list rows.

This is the black outline version of the stress icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
