Stress Response

Stress Response

Stress is a natural physical response to changes in our environment. It can be caused by both positive and negative experiences. The body's initial response to stress is the 'Fight or Flight' response. This response is triggered when an individual is faced with an immediate threat or intense pressure. The body will release hormones, such as adrenaline and norepinephrine, which cause the heart rate to increase, the breathing rate to accelerate, the muscles to tense, and pupils to dilate. During this response, the body is preparing itself to either fight or run away from the perceived danger. Under chronic stress, the body’s response does not dissipate and may cause more long-term health problems. When faced with a manageable stress over an extended period, the body releases cortisol, a steroid hormone that helps increase blood sugar levels and suppress the immune system. Prolonged exposure to cortisol has been associated with high blood pressure, diabetes, and weight gain. In addition to the physiological response, stress can also trigger psychological reactions, such as difficulty sleeping, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and anxiety. People may also resort to unhealthy behaviors, such as smoking, drinking, or overeating, as coping mechanisms. The most effective way to handle stress is to learn healthy coping skills. This includes deep breathing, mindfulness, exercise, and other relaxation techniques. Exercise, in particular, can help reduce stress levels as it triggers the body to release endorphins, which are natural hormones that promote feelings of happiness and relaxation. It is also important to practice self-care and to make time for leisure activities. Setting boundaries and removing yourself from stressful situations can also be beneficial. Finally, seeking professional help if needed is another important step to managing stress.
