The Impact of Stress and Unpleasant Feelings on Social Behaviour

Kenneth Allen

 Stress hormone byproducts can serve as sedatives (chemical substances which cause us to become calm or fatigued). When high amounts of hormone byproducts are present (as they will be under chronic stress), they may lead to a long-term feeling of exhaustion or despair. Habitual thought patterns that influence assessment and raise the likelihood that a person will perceive stress as negative (such as low self-efficacy or a belief that you are incapable of handling stress) can also increase the risk of depression.
