hypofunction of stress
Introduction
Introduction The stress response is originally a series of non-specific response reactions, such as nerve excitation, increased hormone secretion, elevated blood sugar, increased blood pressure, increased heart rate, and accelerated breathing, which are produced by comprehensive analysis of the cerebral cortex after the body is strongly stimulated by the outside world. . It should be said that this situation is normal. Its function is to enable the body to respond quickly and promptly to the stimulus. As long as its intensity, frequency and duration are appropriate, it will not only cause damage to the human body, but also protect the body.
Cause
Cause
Causes of decreased stress function:
1. Stressors: Common stressors have the following:
A. Serious life events, such as heavy traffic accidents; sudden death of a loved one; attack by a gangster; rape or significant property damage.
B. Major natural disasters, such as floods, earthquakes and fires, threats to life safety.
C. The scene of war, such as the white-edged battle between the two sides of the enemy.
2. Individual susceptibility: The existence of the above-mentioned stressors is undoubtedly the key to the onset of the disease, but in fact, most people who are stressed do not have mental disorders. This suggests that individual susceptibility also plays an important role in the pathogenesis. Such susceptibility includes: pre-disease personality, physical condition, age, and the like.

Examination and diagnosis of stress dysfunction:
Immediately (or within a few minutes) the following symptoms occur under the influence of an unusual stressor:
(1) manifested as a mixed and often changing clinical phase, in addition to the "sudden" state of the initial stage, there may be depression, anxiety, anger, despair, hyperactivity, withdrawal, and no symptoms continue to occupy Advantage.
(2) If the stressful environment is eliminated, the symptoms are quickly relieved; if the stress persists or is irreversible, the symptoms generally begin to decrease in 24-48 hours and tend to become very mild after about 3 days. Does not include sudden deterioration of symptoms in patients who have met other criteria for psychiatric disorders. However, the history of previous psychiatric disorders does not affect the use of this diagnosis.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Identification of symptoms that are confusing due to reduced stress function:
1. Depression: This disease has the interest to decline, alienation from others, feeling the future, and there are also sad experiences, similar memories of "touching the scene", emotional changes, etc., but there are still differences between the two. However, simple depression disorders do not have intrusive memories and dreams associated with traumatic events, nor do they evade specific topics or scenarios. The depression mood of depression involves a wide range of aspects, including usual interests, daily preferences, and personal future. Negative, inferiority or suicide attempts are also common.
2. Anxiety neurosis: In the case of delayed psychogenic response with persistent alertness and autonomic nervous system symptoms, it should be differentiated from chronic anxiety. Anxiety disorders often have excessive anxiety about their own health, more complaints about the body, and even a tendency to suspect, but no obvious factors of mental trauma.
3. Obsessive-compulsive disorder: It can express repetitive compulsive thinking, but often exhibits inappropriateness and no unusual life events before the disease, so it is different from post-traumatic stress disorder.
4. Severe mental disorders: schizophrenia and mental disorders associated with physical illness can have hallucinations and illusions, but these diseases do not have an unusual traumatic experience before the disease, and the symptoms are different, so it is not Difficulties are distinguished from the hallucinations and illusions of post-traumatic stress disorder.
