Description
😰 Sometimes stress symptoms are obvious (say hello to tight shoulders). Other times, it shows up in ways you might mistake for something else, like those sudden stomachaches you blame on eating something "funky."
Stress triggers your body's fight-or-flight response. ✈️ 👊 When that happens, your heart races, your breathing quickens, and your muscles prepare for battle. While this survival mechanism was designed to protect you in an emergency, having that alarm system constantly firing day after day can put your long-term health at serious risk.
