It’s not uncommon for people to become so used to being stressed out they fail to realize it’s an issue. They have forgotten how not to feel stressed out. Furthermore, stress can manifest in different ways.

Symptoms of fatigue-based stress include:
– Fatigue
– Slow to get going in the morning
– Energy crash in the afternoon
– Craving sweets, caffeine, or nicotine
– Unstable behavior; moodiness
– Shaky, light-headed, or irritable if meals are delayed
– Inability to stay asleep
– Dizziness when moving from sitting to standing

Symptoms of wired stress may look more like:
– Excess belly fat
– Insulin resistance (high blood sugar)
– Insomnia
– Not feeling rested in the morning
– Women grow facial hair; men grow breasts
– PCOS in women (polycystic ovarian syndrome)

By measuring several markers, an adrenal stress test can tell you if stress is a major cause of your symptoms or poor health.
