How stress works

When you are in a stressful situation, your body releases the hormones cortisol,
adrenaline, and noradrenaline, and these go on to cause the physical symptoms of stress.
You may start sweating, and your blood pressure and heart rate may rise.
This, in turn, may undermine your immune system, making you more
susceptible to illness, as well as lead your body to release fat and sugar
into your blood stream, which may lead you to gain weight.
 
As stress raises your blood pressure, if you are stressed in the long term,
you can develop high blood pressure, which in turn can increase your risk of
having a heart attack or a stroke.
If you feel that you are suffering from stress, see you GP,
but do not accept long term tranquilliser prescriptions.
Ask for help from a psychologist, stress counsellor, relaxation therapist,
qualified hypnotherapist or even alternative therapist.
If these do not work, you must go back to your GP for professional guidance
