Definition
Acute Stress:Acute stress is the most common form of stress. It comes from demands and pressures of the recent past and anticipated demands and pressures of the near future.
Chronic Stress:Chronic stress is the response to emotional pressure suffered for a prolonged period over which an individual perceives he or she has no control. It involves an endocrine system response in which occurs a release of corticosteroids.
Examples from my life:I have chronic stress i think because my house has gotten robbed and it was terrible at my age and i didn't think i will be in this type of situation and i know i have to face my fear but i just can't but i'm getting help from my counselor and she is helping a lot.
Comparing acute and chronic stress: The similarities of acute and chronic stress are that you hit flight or fight but chronic stress makes flight or fight last more than it should.

ACUTE FEEDBACK LOOP
Acute stress feedback loop
Stimulus:The stimulus is what causes the change.
Receptor:An organ or cell able to respond to light, heat, or other external stimulus and transmit a signal to a sensory nerve.
Control Center:Is the hypothalamus this is a part of your brain .
Effector: Is sending adrenaline and cortisol to your heart and make you hit flight or fight.
