What Is The Relation Between Abuse And Adrenal Dysfunction?

Can the constant stress of being subjected to frequent physical, psychological and sexual abuse (over a period of 7 years) lead to adrenal dysfunction? By constant stress I mean living on a perpetual adrenaline rush, always in fight or flight mode.

Dear friend ,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic

I read your concern and there is link between chronic abuse and adrenal dysfunction ,
I suggest you to consider following to restore adrenal cortisol level and to restore normal healthy life again .
1) Reduce or eliminate caffeine consumption.
2) Reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption.
3) Stress is a primary component of adrenal fatigue, and it is critical to lower your stress.
4) Control stress levels through relaxation techniques, such as relaxation, visualization, meditation, breathing techniques, or yoga or other activities.
5) Exercise also helps to reduce stress levels.
6) Take short, horizontal rests during the day, 15-30 min. if possible, especially when drained or stressed.


You can ask me furthur if you have any more doubts regarding your concern.
Take Care
Regards
Dr.J.Kingson John David
