Not much because it's quite nebulous. It does seem to make scientific sense that the body would reduce such defences to bare essentials like inflammation and blood clotting during crisis in order to save energy. These systems would normally come fully back online during 'rest and digest' periods when the short-term crisis is over. Why do people enjoy chronic activation of the sympathetic nervous system? I think it's a form of distraction: a way of avoiding boredom or the contemplation of painful memories and personal problems. This is common sense for many people but it obviously isn't being addressed by the harder biological and medical journals because they don't like to talk about subjective experiences. Presumably because they require objectivity and they think of subjectivity as being the opposite. But this is itself a misconception: https://twitter.com/DavidDeutschOxf/status/1174630365912326144 https://twitter.com/DavidDeutschOxf/status/11746303659123261...
