13. Dangerous
Situation
• Stress signals the body to prepare
to face a threat or flee to safety
• Your pulse quickens, you breathe
faster, your muscles tense, and
your brain uses more oxygen and
increases activity
• All functions aimed at survival
16. Chronic Stress
Because the source of long-term stress is more constant than
acute stress, the body never receives a clear signal to return to
normal functioning
Those same lifesaving reactions in the body can disturb the
immune, digestive, cardiovascular, sleep, and reproductive
systems
Some people may experience mainly digestive symptoms,
