Effects of stress
Stress manifests itself on a physical, mental and emotional level. Frequent and sustained stress depletes energy and debilitates the immune system.
Sufferers are more susceptible to infectious disease and will take longer to recover. Other symptoms include mood swings, anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, alcohol and drug dependency, and numerous physical conditions such as headaches, allergies, high blood pressure, digestive problems and aches & pains.
