I work for a company that's being bought out, and the management is running around like headless chickens- either to sabotage the company and the takeover or to save their own skin. I'm grateful to have a job and all, but the insanity and the pressure of trying to keep the job until either the merger's done or I collect my severance package are making for an extremely stressful year. Is there a way to cut down on the cortisol so it doesn't stall me out?

Hmm, maybe it has sense to change your reaction to the stress?

For example exercise, meditation, self help books/groups etc.

I had the same problem and found this guy's video. Check it out. lifarre.com/hormones/protocol1.htm

The more we stress (whether it's work, relationship related, whatever), the more it spikes our big hormones like cortisol and the more it takes a toll on our body.
