Our bodies are equipped for short periods of stress, so it is not something we usually get sick from. Stress as a condition involves the whole body. However, if the stress is prolonged and there are no periods of recovery, you can develop stress-related symptoms and fatigue syndrome. Common problems include sleep disturbances, stomach upset, persistent pain and high blood pressure. Prolonged stress also affects the immune system, making it more susceptible to infections. Common emotional reactions to prolonged stress include anxiety and/or depression, as well as feelings of tiredness, exhaustion and inadequacy. Sometimes there is a desire to isolate oneself. In addition, constantly experiencing too small margins can make it difficult to control emotional reactions.
