Your body releases chemicals like noradrenaline, adrenaline and cortisol into your brain and bloodstream, all while you decide whether to face the situation or run away from it.
Stress is a normal part of life, and it can sometimes be a good thing. This process happens many times every day and we need a certain amount of stress to help us function and make decisions.
However, there is such a thing as too much stress and, if left untreated, this can have a negative impact on your long-term physical and mental health. It can lead to anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease, so it’s a good idea to address the problem before it gets that far.
Our online doctors can discuss your situation with you, identify what’s causing your stress and recommend the best treatment.
