- Summary:
- Two Stress Hormones, Adrenaline and Cortisol, help us get away from danger quickly, but they keep us agitated long after the stressful event or danger has passed. Knowing how these hormones work can help you cope with the impact of extreme stress. Adrenaline works like gasoline on fire- a big burst and flash for energy transport- and then it burns out! If you need to run away, then you need Adrenaline to help you. Cortisol is released like dense old wood- it catches fire and then burns for a long time- keeping the fire of stress burning.
