The Different Types And Causes Of Stress

Cortisol and adrenaline are hormones released as a response from the nervous system when there is a threat. The responsibility of these hormones is to rouse the body and ready it for emergency action. The physical response to a feeling of threat or when the balance is upset is called stress. This can build up to harmful levels that can in turn cause damages to a persons mood, relationships, quality of life and productivity.
