Al -Shark Al -Avasat Newspaper -Story: Good sleep in small sleep improves our mental health in old age

Tension is one of our common feelings about many responsibilities of personal, family and practical life, and tension can have many effects on our health.

“There is a difference between severe and chronic tension, and it is useful to distinguish between two types,” said Dr Jammu Brahmat, a urologist and assistant professor at Florida University Medical College, in an article on the American CNNetwork.

«He claims that severe tension is an immediate reaction to the threat to your body; Your heart failed before an important performance, or jumping when the big throat heard, and this tension is severe, but it is usually short -lived and our bodies are designed to deal with it and usually come to normal after it.

«He said that long -term tension is continuous, it is a daily burden of continuous problems such as financial problems, relationships, work stresses or health stresses … and rather than severe tension, long -term tension keeps you in a continuous maximum warning, often harmful to your health.

He claims that when you are nervous, your body calls a careful coordination response called “fighting reaction” or “escape”; Where everything begins in the underford area, the center of the brain that activates two parallel regiments in the adrenal glands: the friendly nervous system, and under the mulch – the pituitary – the adrenal gland and the friendly nervous system stimulates the release of adrenaline that will quickly operate your body.

This fast -working hormone increases the heart rate and blood pressure, opens the air ducts, stimulates your senses and sends more blood to your muscles, and the cortisol will be released through the Mulch axis – pituitary – the pituitary gland.

In contrast to rapid adrenaline effect, cortisol plays a long -term role in helping the body to deal with continuous tension.

Cortisol increases blood sugar, increases the concentration and memory of the brain and delays functions such as digestion, fertility and immunity; Because in crisis, your body will focus on being.

Adrenaline and cortisol work smoothly to deal with short -term threats to the body.

However, if stress becomes chronic, high levels of cortisol can lead to fatigue, sleep problems, weight gain and other health problems.

In critical moments, the tension response is useful, but it is also necessary, but when stimulating stimules such as unpaid bills or specific working hours, your body may be trapped in that high state.

Over time, high -level cortisol is constantly damaged, weakening metabolism, affects mood control, and also contributes to chronic inflammation – all of which increase the risk of chronic health problems.

Similarly, Jamin Brahmat asked a question: “Have you ever noticed how you need a bathroom to surprise the bathroom, especially before an important speech or meeting?” He said, “Tension directly affects the control of the bladder, by stimulating the nerves that caused the excessive management of its performance, which leads to an increase in urgent need to urinate, increase the time to go to the bathroom, and sometimes for leakage.”

Research constantly connects high levels of stress and anxiety with bladder hyperplasia; Your bladder does not only respond to the amount of drunk liquids; It also interacts with your mood too.

Experts say that the number of daytime diuretic times indicates different things related to your health.

Brahmat pointed out that long -term tension was not a friend of your sex life. When tension with hormones such as cortisol, it is disturbed by your natural hormonal balance, which greatly reduces testosterone levels and estrogen levels in women and reducing sex hormones, with excessive stress hormones. The result is less sexual desire, erection in men, difficulty in enthusiasm and excitement in women.

As one of the main causes of healthy impairment in healthy adults, studies have highlighted mental tension, and deeply determine the relationship between the mind and the body in terms of sexual health.

But hormones are not the only factor, because chronic tension can also affect blood flow, which is important to sexual reaction. And when tension affects your sleep, it increases the problem; This is because you need to produce hormones in healthy and sexual function.

Also, emotional effect is of little importance. When you are tense, your mind is busy with concerns, intimacy and communication with others often decline, and as time passes, this model affects relationships, which weakens more sexual desire.

Similarly, chronic tension can also take your sleep, because high -level cortisol and consistent anxiety will prevent you from deep and fresh sleep, which seem to be tired even after a full night and then increases the lack of sleep from the levels of tension, which creates a vicious circle of depression and repetition.

Chronic tension can cause dangerous health problems. In addition to its effect on sleep, chronic tension is a strong catalyst for many dangerous health conditions. Constant exposure to cortisol and other tension hormones increases inflammation, prevents immunity and prepare conditions for diseases.

Chronic tension is directly related to the risk of high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes.

The American Heart Association stress directly increases blood pressure and indirectly contributes to illness habits, including smoking, malnutrition and passive lifestyle.

The risk of tension is not limited to the heart, but research indicates that it accelerates the development of cancer by weakening the immune body protection, creating conditions that promote the growth of cancer cells and increases the risk of metabolic disorders such as OB luncheon and diabetes, along with mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.

Jamin Brahma advises you not to overcome you. He said: “Although tension is inevitable, your bladder, sexual health, hormones, sleep and understanding its effect on your public health gives you the ability to perceive and manage it before controling you.”

He explained: «All tension is not harmful. Instead, severe tension stimulates you and helps you to deal with the challenges directly, but the chronic tension is the result of a daily stress, such as financial anxiety or family problems, and often goes on until your health gradually weakens and symptoms are unjust.

He said: «So, that you are suffering from insomnia due to your child’s future, take some time and go away, stretch, walk a little, or inhale heeping, slightly inhale, reduce stress levels, can restore your nervous system and maintain your health in the long run.
