Absolutely: Unfortunately in today's society we don't have the close family ties that existed long ago and we have much more emotional stress and exhaustionyou could say that our society has chronic form of post traumatic stress discorder.Extreme stress causes our stress hormones to react - to even deplete them, the body is no longer able to react and wears down. Our immunity and concentration are impaired.
