Me too, I stress about everything, like politics and our livelihood is way stressful.
LOL, We’re both screwed! My grandmother and aunt both had/have it and my kid is in Afghanistan. Sleep much? Stressed much? Can’t repair what’s gone!
So being married...with children...makes you NUTS. WHO KNEW?
This is pure b/s imho.
Perhaps they should try looking into Lyme’s Disease and it’s correllations.
Seems logical to me.
The mind is under stress so it goes into shutdown mode.
There is, however, hardening of the arteries.
My mother and her mother experienced that, but both lived into their late 90s, but little more the vegetables when they died.
I have never met one of these rare and elusive people.
Oh, terrific. Thanks for the uplifting info, n.
The cortisol liberates catalytic iron from the liver which is then metabolized in the most metabolically active locations: heart and brain. The excess iron in the hippo campus interferes with the insulin signaling and the uptake of glucose into the hippo campus for cognition and new memory creation.
Seems like a cigar and a strong drink, at least once a day, would help keep that from happening.
“I have never met one of these rare and elusive people.”
Nor have I. I know a lot of people without all of the obvious stressors. They spend lots of time worrying about what “might” happen..or if the sunshines too much it will be too hot. Or if the sun doesn’t shine enough mushrooms will grow in the yard.
In a lot of ways, they are more stressed than people dealing with the biggies. And it is constant.
I used to live(stress free) with two such people, my parents; they trusted in the Lord, worked hard, and loved each other until the day they died! “He who has ears, let him hear.”
Actually, I’m thinking that having Alzheimers will keep me from having a stressful life.
You think YOU have it bad....you ought to try living with some kid whose name starts with “B” but shall remain unnamed to protect his innocence!
Man!
Talk about a ROUGH LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve got high school baseball, and at 62 can still throw, catch, hit and even pitch batting practice. Praise God!
I was stressed out but I can’t remember why.
My money is on a bacterial/viral cause.
Always did figure the typical lib was more insane than sane.
Me too. In the past year, my husband was diagnosed with stage 3 prostate cancer, a few months after surgery he was laid off, then my 15 year old daughter started having involuntary muscle movements and other neurological problems that we don’t know what is going on yet. On top of that, we already have a daughter with a brain injury and seizures.
I’m screwed!
Who the h*ll are all you people?
