The more adrenaline on this side combines into even more. In other words, the more adrenaline that comes up generates even more. Instead of having what we call a negative feedback loop system, adrenaline has no negative feedback loop system. Calcium is balanced by magnesium for example.Д«ut because it is a fight or flight response, it is designed to come out and does not have a balancing factor, because the body thinks, 'If I need to have this activated, that means IвЂ™m in serious danger.вЂќ So, the more the better. Michael: ItвЂ™s very important to note that adrenaline and its biochemical mother, called norepinephrine, are one of the very few-in fact, adrenaline is the only hormone in the body that does not have what we call an opposing hormone.ДЇor example, in the body, itвЂ™s mostly designed in such a way that it balances. ThatвЂ™s why you have that little irritable feeling all the time. The adrenaline just stays in use and you just always feel stimulated. Except when you undergo chronic stress, and your adrenaline is always up, and you are unable to have enough cortisol to help dampen that response over time. So, when you see a bear, when you undergo a lot of stress, when your boss is yelling at you, your adrenaline goes up usually to help you fight or run away.

Carrie: Why is that reason is because adrenaline is usually a fight or flight response. A slight argument can set you off, for example.Дr. The slightest stresses can come and affect you. While you are tired at certain times, you can feel anxious at another time. WeвЂ™re talking about just the feeling along the way. In the most severe cases, you will need to see your doctor because you can get panic attacks, and then you have to go to the emergency room, but weвЂ™re not dealing with that level of extreme. So, donвЂ™t just get your mind start thinking, вЂњWell, if I donвЂ™t have adrenal rushes, I donвЂ™t have a problem.вЂќ No, you have a graduation from mild to moderate to severe. When it flows over, thatвЂ™s when you have these adrenaline rushes, but remember they come in a continuum. You donвЂ™t even feel it.ДЇor some people, when you have such a high level of stress, it builds up and then flows over. Therefore, these are just some warning signs, and if you have a sympathetic system that is being activated all the time-especially if youвЂ™re like a type A person-you are so used to having adrenaline rushes and being alert and you keep going all the time. You can have funny nonspecific whispers that your body gives you, but if you step back and take a look, itвЂ™s almost like the body is irritable. These adrenaline rushes can be like tingling down your legs or your feet. Waking up at night, a little bit more panicky sometimes. Then the symptoms get a little more serious and more irritable. If you keep going forward into more advanced stages, more adrenaline, more epinephrine, and more dopamine is being secreted, itвЂ™s part of the autonomic response.

You donвЂ™t have any neurological issues, but somehow, itвЂ™s just not so steady. You donвЂ™t have any cardiovascular issues. You can see all the doctors to check out for sure, and youвЂ™ve been told that youвЂ™re normal. Then, when you stand up, you can feel a little lightheaded, but itвЂ™s not dizzy. For example, the phone rings and you jump. So, at the very minimum, when the bodyвЂ™s under stress and the sympathetic nervous system is being activated, you can just feel irritable. Michael: Well, the important thing to remember is that symptoms donвЂ™t come on and off like a light switch. So, when it comes to this stage, the body will then produce adrenaline to help combat the stress as a last-ditch defense mechanism. It commonly happens when the adrenal glands start failing to produce enough cortisol for the body to deal with the stress that youвЂ™re encountering. Jeremy: Right, so adrenal rushes are very common in adrenal fatigue. Sometimes they could get confused with hot flashes because the menopausal women, they feel like this flush come over them where itвЂ™s hard to say if itвЂ™s a hot flush or an adrenaline rush. They feel this anxious feeling or some feel jittery, wired, and tired. They get really dizzy, especially when they stand up really quickly. What it feels like is a sense of impending doom sometimes. This is something very common, and some people donвЂ™t even realize what is going on.
