  1. This is some information about effects of chronic stress i want to share. The body doesn't distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you're stressed over busy schedule, an argument with a friend,a traffic jam or a mountain of bills, your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response maybe "on" most of time. The more your body's stress system is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems.
