Have you found your mind racing, unable to switch off, even at night? Do you often feel overwhelmed, distracted or anxious?
Regardless of your job, home life, or financial stability, stress has become a constant part of modern life.
Stress affects our emotions, body, and behaviour in profound ways.
As we observe World Mental Health Day this October, it's crucial to address the growing epidemic of stress and anxiety impacting both mental and physical well-being.
How Our Body Reacts to Stress?
When we experience stress, our body releases hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, preparing for a "fight or flight" response, and giving us the energy to deal with the immediate stressor. While this is helpful in short bursts, prolonged or chronic stress that is left unmanaged can keep cortisol levels elevated, manifesting in several physical and emotional symptoms, including:
● Anxiety, mood swings, and depression
● Insomnia and poor sleep quality
● Weight gain, especially around the abdomen
● Cravings for unhealthy, sugary, or fatty foods
● Hormonal imbalances, including menstrual irregularities
● Fatigue, poor immune function, and brain fog
● High blood pressure, blood sugar and increased heart rate
Long-term stress eventually also increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes and auto-immune disorders.
When to seek help in case of Stress?
If stress begins to feel unmanageable or affects your ability to function daily or you experience symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, persistent depression, apathy and thoughts of self-harm, it’s essential to seek professional help. Early intervention can make a big difference.
