Educational Times: How to detect if you are having an emotional hangover

Dr Felicity Baker is cited in this article in the Educational Times, India talking about how to know if you are experiencing an emotional hangover and what you can do about it.


"Unlike alcohol-related hangovers, which take a few hours to set in, emotional hangovers can start almost immediately and can last anywhere from a few minutes to several days."


Stressful situations trigger the body’s fight-or-flight response, leading to an adrenaline and cortisol surge. While physical symptoms like a racing heart may fade quickly, emotional reactions can linger longer. Some people are more susceptible to emotional hangovers, especially those with past trauma, existing emotional issues, or introverted personalities because their baseline stress levels are already elevated.


In this article Felicity is joined by a number of experts to highlight what can lead to an emotional hangover and what you can do about it.
