The Impacts of Stress on the Nervous System

For me fear is that first hit to the homeostasis of our nervous system when we fall out of what I sometimes call the balance beam of basic safety. And so stress at this point I almost never talk about stress because I feel like stress is sort of a not super useful euphemism really for fear. So I think most things that we call stress actually are fear to some degree. However stress does speak to kind of a cronicity or a happening again and again over time that fear may not necessarily be associated with.
