When stress is unrelenting, eventually the body's immune system can break down. Fight
or Flight?
Mankind is still hard-wired to deal with perceived danger, threats or attacks with a primitive survival mechanism known as the fight or flight response. When the conscious mind can no longer handle threatening stimuli, the subconscious prepares us for fight or flight..... Our hearts pumps harder, adrenaline races through our systems, blood pressure rises, super strength can be generated.... We are ready for a physical confrontation. But sometimes there is nothing to fight. We can't physically fight the environment or a job, an accident, a bad decision and so on. So... now what? Stress
Thankfully, stress is not always negative, certain kinds of stress that are very desirable (for instance: the stress of romantic encounters, job promotions, athletic competitions and such, but stressors that produce debilitation, depression, excessive smoking, overeating, anger, grief and other reactions that cause dysfunction and unhappiness need to be dealt with and released. Stress is a fact of life. We can't eliminate all stressful situations any more then we can create a better past. The good news is that we can alter our perceptions and reactions to stress. Stress can be a reaction to people, places, events or things. Threats may be real or imagined. Remember... the subconscious mind does not analyze, and sometimes by the time depression appears, the conscious mind has lost its ability to do so too. However, the causes of the stress can be recognized, defined and often eliminated. What
Causes Stress?
People
who are characterized as over-achievers, the highly competitive, or type
"A" personalities continually expose themselves to the ravages of stress.
The biochemistry created by stress can actually become addictive.
Debilitating reactions and inadequate or inappropriate coping skills related
to stress are often learned early in life from role models (parents, teachers,
and relatives).
