THIS IS YOUR BRAIN. This is Your Brain on Stress.
Want something else to worry about? Worry about worrying too much. The evidence is building that chronically elevated stress shrinks your brain!
A study in press at the journal Biological Psychiatry asked 103 people about how often they had experienced stressful events, both recently and over the course of their lifetimes, as well as about their chronic ongoing stress, and then took functional magnetic resonance images of their brain. The more stress, the smaller the brain…in several particular cortical areas.
.. As if we needed anything else against us while exam prepping -.-
SCUMBAG BRAIN! >:(
