Fatigue

Long term stress/anxiety/panic attacks can also

exhaust your adrenal glands. Every time you

engage your SNS, adrenaline is released from the

adrenal glands. Think back to the bear example. If

you are confronted with a dangerous situation, you

want adrenaline running through your body. It may

be the difference between surviving and not

surviving.

However, you are not designed to use your adrenal

glands continuously. If you do so because you are

constantly under stress or anxious, the adrenals can

become exhausted and stop working properly. In

addition to fatigue, overtaxed adrenals can also lead

to depression, low blood pressure, dizziness, low

sex drive, weight gain, loss of muscle tone and

immune dysfunction just to name a few.

What you can do to help control stress, anxiety or

panic attacks.
