Stressfree Living: Acute vs Chronic Stress, 6 Proven Stress Busters

What are the different kinds of stress and how can we eliminate them?

Stress is inevitable as long as you are a superman. Emotionally dull or bankrupt.?For all other human beings, stress and depression are a part of life. You can’t possibly escape from stress.

?

Does that mean that you are helpless while stressed out? No.

?

There comes a time when you even do not know the causes of your stress. You just feel exhausted, super burnout, and depressed without apparent reason.

?

If you know the cause, 80% chances are that you will easily cope with your stress without doing any extra physical activities or implementing any psychological techniques.?If you do not know the cause, you can still cope with it by visiting a doctor and considering taking some supplements. There is always a way out.

But I would prefer to see you doing something other than the above.

?

In this article, I will mention the top 6 tried and tested ways for stress management to help restore your normal condition and boost your mental activity, productivity, and workflow.

?

Before diving directly into the techniques, let’s know the two common types of stress.

?

Acute stress

Acute or short-term stress is a normal response to a specific event or situation perceived as threatening or challenging. You might face acute stress against any minor problem related to you, like a presentation at work. It may be stressful events that are occurring around you, like a car accident, receiving bad news, etc.

?

During an acute stress response, the body activates the “fight or flight” response, a normal physiological response to a perceived threat. After a short time, your body will mediate itself.?Acute stress can affect you both positively and negatively.

?

Heavy metal toxicity can trigger this fight or flight reaction and drain your body of calming minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, and Zinc in the short or long term.

?

Positive effect:

It can increase alertness and focus, which can be beneficial in situations that require quick thinking or action.


Negative effect:

If the stress response is prolonged or intense, it can have adverse effects on mental health, including:

  • Irritability
  • Depression
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Anxiousness and fear
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Loss of interest in usual activities


Chronic Stress

Chronic or long-term stress is prolonged exposure to stressors over a prolonged period of time. You can face chronic stress because of ongoing financial difficulties, a demanding job, a complicated relationship, heavy metal toxicity, or a long-term illness.

?

Chronic stress can hurt both physical and mental health.?Heavy metals such as copper, iron, mercury, aluminum, and nickel can push you to behave “un” naturally.?By this I mean not of your nature. They can push you to be reactive, angry, depressed, and more.

?

Physically these heavy metals can facilitate diseases and cause a long list of physical symptoms.?By using a Hair Mineral Analysis Test you can see where you are at and get natural solutions for detoxification.

?

Some of the physical effects of chronic stress include:

  • Increased risk of heart disease
  • Gastrointestinal problems
  • High blood pressure
  • Chronic pain
  • Headaches


In terms of mental health, chronic stress can lead to:

  • Anger
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Frustration
  • Constant fatigue
  • Loss of motivation
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Difficulty with concentration and memory

?

Now, I hope that next time you will be able to differentiate what kind of stress you have and what may be the possible consequences.

?

Whether acute or chronic stress, you can apply any of the following (or all) 6 stress busters to improve your mental and physical health.

??Lisa Rufsholm, NC??, A game of tennis ??, also I enjoy reading the bible; the bible book of Psalms is a good stress buster.

A helpful share! Certainly there can be a number of causes of stress and identifying them would help individuals deal better in such stressful situations.

??Lisa Rufsholm, NC??I probably run at a pretty high stress level. I work too much and take things a little too seriously! My solution is to stick with my AM routine as much as possible: meditation, yoga, cardio then start the workday. Take a pile of high-quality vitamins that I get tested for. End of day it nearly always too late and I'm working on that! I end with meditation. I think I have no choice but to have this routine to balance my rather packed days. Course not too great that I have extreme adrenal fatigue. Amazingly that is it and no health problems or chronic diseases.
