What is stress and what does it do to us? This program
explores the links between stress and illness by staging a day in the life of a lawyer. An
endocrinologist, a perinatal psychobiologist, an occupational psychologist, and two
psychiatrists observe and comment on his stress factors and the way he handles them. The
experts discuss how the "fight or flight response," a result of adrenalin and
cortisol secretion triggered by stress, might be appropriate for fleeing from lions but is
not a useful reaction in the office and can be detrimental over time. Type A and B
personalities are explained, as well as how the ability to manage stress may be determined
before birth. A Discovery Channel Production. (50 minutes, color)
