Some adults have learned to hide certain behaviors throughout their life, so signs of autism might be subtler than in children.

Stress can cause a number of physical changes in the body. These shifts are your body's fight-or-flight response to danger — real or perceived. When your body continually repeats this stress response, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health conditions.

For example, chronic stress can cause nausea, stomach pain, constipation, indigestion and diarrhea. Stress even affects the brain long-term, leading to anxiety, depression and headaches, as well as problems with concentration and memory.

We can’t avoid stress, but we can learn how to manage it better. Take the first step with the American Heart Association’s stress management resources: https://bit.ly/4ctSiYu
