Anxiety has a complicated relationship with the immune system, and unfortunately, there is some evidence that too much anxiety can actually weaken the immune system dramatically. It can put a stress on the body which in turn releases a stress hormone called cortisol. Cortisol is the body’s main stress hormone, and is somewhat like nature’s alarm system. Anxiety does not cause sickness but when there is contact with germs, the weakened immune system may struggle to fight them back. The more you stress, the more vulnerable you can become to viruses, because stress can dampen your immune response.It is important to be in the know. But you do not need to obsess over the news.
