40. THE STRESS RESPONSE Physiological Adaptations Heart Rate Blood Pressure Respiration Constriction of arteries of skin Fibrinogen Glucose and fatty acids for energy Endorphins

42. Physical Response to Stressors = Fight-or-Flight Reaction Endocrine system = system of glands, tissues, and cells that secrete hormones into the bloodstream; influences metabolism and body processes Key chemical messengers during the stress response Norepinephrine = neurotransmitter released by the sympathetic division to increase body functions; increases attention, awareness, alertness Epinephrine = hormone secreted by the inner core of the adrenal gland Cortisol = steroid hormone secreted by the outer layer of the adrenal gland Endorphin = brain secretions that have pain-inhibiting effects

43. THE STRESS RESPONSE Perception of Persistent Danger Hypothalamus Pituitary Gland Releases - ACTH Adrenal Cortex Cortisol

44. THE STRESS RESPONSE Physiological Adaptations Activity and Alertness Hunger Fat and Glucose Storage Immune Function

45. THE STRESS RESPONSE �Is what empowers us to handle and adapt to changes in our environment. Even if we perceive these changes as stressful, the intricate, elegant system�exists for the very purpose of helping us cope.�

46. THE STRESS RESPONSE �Whether we need to fight, stand firm, bolt to safety, or concentrate on a task at hand, the stress response provides the tools � energy, oxygen, muscle power, fuel, pain resistance, mental acuity and a temporary bulwark against infection.�

47. WHY ZEBRAS DON�T GET ULCERS �A zebra�s stress response kicks in when the zebra is chased by a lion; when the zebra escapes, the stress response shuts off. In between predation attempts the zebra is at ease. It doesn�t flood itself with stress hormones wondering when the next lion is going to show up�

50. �AND WHY HUMANS DO �The human mind is so powerful, the connections between perception and physiological response so strong, that we can set off the fight-or-flight response by just imagining ourselves in a threatening situation.�

51. THE STRESS RESPONSE Then: Preparation for fight or flight or environmental challenge Response to physical stress: animals, rock slides, famine, drought, etc. Most stress limited in time

52. THE STRESS RESPONSE Now: Most danger is not physical Response to emotional conflicts: work, finances, bureaucracy, noise, isolation Ongoing, chronic stress

66. WW You D:

67. Stress & Personality

68. Type A vs Type B Type A Generally lives at a higher stress level and typically: They enjoy achievement of goals (thus constantly working hard to achieve these). They find it difficult to stop, even when they have achieved goals. They feel the pressure of time, constantly working flat out. They are highly competitive and will, if necessary create competition. They hate failure and will work hard to avoid it. They are generally pretty fit and often well-educated (a result of their anxiety). Type B The Type B personality generally lives at a lower stress level typically: They work steadily, enjoying achievements but not becoming stressed when they are not achieved. When faced with competition, they do not mind losing and either enjoy the game or back down. They may be creative and enjoy exploring ideas and concepts. They are often reflective, thinking about the outer and inner worlds.

69. Resiliency Resiliency is the ability to spring back from and successfully adapt to adversity. Generally, building resiliency involves doing two difficult things simultaneously in a stressful situation: self-soothing and self-confronting. Self-soothing is taking deliberate steps to calm oneself while facing a stressful situation. Self-Confronting-The idea here is to ask yourself why you are upset and learn what this tells you about yourself.

76. The Blind Man and the Elephant II

77. Perspective for Your Parents A father passing by Vishal�s bedroom was astonished to see that his bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to "Dad.� With the worst premonition he opened the envelope with trembling hands and read the letter.

78. It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to elope with my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with mom and you. I have been finding real passion with Stacy and she is so nice. But I knew you would not approve of her because of all her piercings�, and tattoos, and tight motorcycle clothes and the fact that she is much older than I am. But it's not only the passion...Dad, she's pregnant. Stacy said that we will be very happy.

79. She owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. We share a dream of having many more children. Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone. We'll be growing it for ourselves and trading it with the other people that live nearby for cocaine and ecstasy. In the meantime we will pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Stacy can get better. She deserves it. Don't worry Dad. I'm 15 and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I'm sure that we will be back to visit so that you can get to know your grandchildren. Love, Your Son Vishal

80. P.S. Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at Tommy's house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than the report card that's in my center desk drawer. I love you. Call me when it's safe to come home.

93. What is the Relationship between Drug use and depression? Depression and recreational drug use are both common and can occur together purely by chance as individual problems.

94. More often, however, there is an interaction between the two and this can take several forms:  a person may be suffering from depressive symptoms and take drugs in the hope of gaining some relief. depressive symptoms may develop as a direct result of taking drugs, or as part of withdrawal symptoms when drug-taking stops. (Low mood in withdrawal may be brief and self-limiting, but sometimes it can lead to a serious, prolonged depressive illness.) a person may take drugs to 'escape' from a problem during a particularly stressful time in their life; this stress may also be the trigger for an episode of depression. heavy drug use can lead to major financial problems, difficulties with relationships or trouble with the law. A person taking recreational drugs is likely to have more of these pressures, which may trigger depression. people who are depressed may use recreational drugs in an attempt to end their life. drug use is particularly common in other psychiatric illnesses
