It explains the brain's interpretation of stress, outlining how the sympathetic response prepares the body for "fight, flight, or freeze" actions. It also covers the effects of chronic stress on health, highlighting the role of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and the sympathetic-adrenal-medullary response.

The nervous system is divided into 2 parts: the central nervous system, consisting of the brain and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous systemconsisting of nerves connected to the brain and spinal cord.

Stress is described as normal, with people experiencing it differently based on physical, psychological, and emotional factors. Stressors are categorized as internal or external and can be acute or chronic. Physical stressors affect the body directly, while psychosocial stressors relate to mental and emotional responses. Stress varies with age, where coping skills differ between children and adults.

It describes how this response prepares our bodies for confrontation or escape through the sympathetic nervous system. In modern scenarios, such as taking tests, the absence of an escape route contributes to heightened stress, as individuals have to face challenges head-on instead of fleeing.

It explains the synapse between preganglionic and postganglionic neurons in sympathetic ganglia, and their influence on organs like the heart and glands.
