Flexi Says: Stress or anxiety is your brain's and your body's way of responding to any type of unnatural demand or threat. Under this stress, your body responds through a number of mechanisms: your body does primarily release chemicals in an attempt to counteract the stress. That is, your body releases chemicals to give you the added strength and energy needed to protect yourself. This is a natural reaction, initiated and controlled by your brain and the release of specific hormones.
