If the perceived threat remains beyond that first rush of epinephrine, a system called the HPA axis will kick in to help the body stay alert and ready for action. HPA is a super helpful acronym—it not only represents the hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal glands, but it also does so in the correct order.
The hypothalamus kicks off this part of the stress response by releasing a hormone called CRH corticotropin-releasing hormone. This hormone signals the pituitary gland to release another hormone called ACTH adrenocorticotropic hormone. When cortisol levels are high, the liver will increase gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from stored glycogen.
Similarly, adipose tissue will respond to high cortisol levels by increasing lipolysis, the breakdown of fats into glycerol and fatty acids. Increased cortisol causes the pancreas to decrease insulin levels and increase glucagon. Posterior view of the adrenal glands, liver, and pancreas. Maybe your hands will be a little shaky as you continue driving. Now that the threat has passed, however, your body is free to calm down.
Recovering from an everyday acute stress response usually takes between 20 and 30 minutes. According to the general adaptation syndrome GAS model of stress responses, the period in which the body starts to wind down from a fight-or-flight response is called the resistance phase. If the body is not able to recover, it will eventually become exhausted, leading to fatigue, depression, and anxiety.
Chronic stress happens when the body is constantly responding to stress and is not able to fully recover. Cortisol remains high even for long periods of time. High-pressure jobs, financial hardship, relationship troubles, and trauma are just a few sources of long-term stress that can have harmful psychological and physiological effects.
Continuous fight-or-flight responses and HPA activity are rough on the body. Chronic stress can increase the risk of a number of health conditions including, but not limited to:.
