Stress, Bannon said, "is permanent but it's also dynamic. From the time you were born, your central nervous system started experiencing stressors.....the stress is stored in your body."
Morning Gentlemen, first post on site after intro.
late 20's...heading off to BCT for 18x contract soon. Aiming for 18D.
Finding thread very interesting and am wanting to ask a question.
Having been brought up by an Infantry Officer, I have always been thankful for the oldman being such a hard arse when I was a kid. Didn't appreciate it then of course
. (lol)
The 'training' the old man has given me has generated a kind of love for stress that makes me often push way beyond my physical boundries. Have burnt right out a couple of times, but always keen to go back for more.
QUESTION: I have always had it in the back of my head that the amount of 'massive' pressure situations one puts oneself through over the years may have a longterm detremental effect.
Is this Shrink saying that every bit of stress we go thru is stored and that we only have so much room to store it before we overload?
I've always had it in the back of my head that this sought of thing existed...and am honestly concerned that I may have used alot of my room up already.....I push myself harder than most civilians I know....apart from the old man that is(lol)....he's a machine, even at 62
I guess what I'm saying is I'd hate to think that I have some sort of Phsyc weakess, that will ultimately make me less usful to SF just becuase I've busted my arse and put myself under high levels of stress these past 10 years?
Yes, you store up stress, but you can also process it?
Thougts?
