"Stress" response describes the condition caused by your reaction to physical, chemical, emotional or environmental factors. Stress can refer to physical effort and mental tension. It's hard to define a high level of emotional or psychological stress to measure in a precise way. All people feel stress, but they feel it in different amounts and react to it in different ways. What's stressful to one person may not be to another. Your body reacts
to stressful situations by releasing a hormone –
adrenaline – that causes your breathing and
heart rate to speed up and your blood pressure to rise.
These physical reactions prepare you to deal with the
situation by confronting it or by running away from it
– the "fight or flight" response. When stress is
constant (chronic), your body remains in high gear off
and on for days or weeks at a time.
