Overactive stress response/sympathetic nervous system

[Guest guest]

Dear All

I think I have an unbalanced nervous system with my sympathetic nervous system

being more active. The reason I think this is that I seem to have a very

overactive stress response and react very strongly to even the slightest

stressor. For example the phone rang in the night and prompted me to wake with a

surge or adrenaline and a racing heart.

I am trying to find ways to rebalance my nervous system and calm down my stress

response. I do not want to take medication if I can help it so would prefer to

try complimentary or nutritional therapies.

Any suggestions welcome.
