Stress People's reaction to stress ~ 3 stages... 1. "Fight or flight" 2. Resistance / adjusting 3. Energy depletion / "giving up" ~ psychological / emotional reactions i.e. fear, anger, depression, etc.. Physical consequences of being stressed ~ immune system lowers (easily sick) ~ higher blood pressure (easier for heart disease) ~ increase in cholesterol (o.o easier to get fat?) ~ decrease in protein synthesis (soo... sorta why cream can't drink milk now?) Psychological consequences of being stressed ~ automatic avoidance ~ "burnout" - more easily tired It's been rumoured that stress can cause cancer too... though there's no scientific evidence of such a thing... To learn that on the day of my psych exam is a very sad thing..... u.u"
