Many people encounter stress throughout their everyday life. Some people are not aware of how much of an impact stress can cause damage to their brain. Studies have shown that women have a higher risk for stress compared to men (Roszkowski et.al., 2016). Women are more likely to stress about social factors, while men on the other hand, stress very little about situations that encounter in their life. In this paper I will explain how stress can cause brain damage in a woman’s pregnancy, men who encounters Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and teenagers who drink alcohol.

PTSD can reduce the use of the amygdala due to the deep brain stimulation (Langevin et.al., 2016).The deep brain stimulation can inadequate the control of a cerebral target from the medial prefrontal cortex (Langevin et.al., 2016). Posttraumatic stress disorder is more common to be found in women than men (Bangasser, Wiersielis, & Khantsis, 2016). People who have Posttraumatic stress disorder have flashbacks and not always in their right state of mind (Langevin et.al., 2016). A study was conducted to a veteran who was forty-eight years old (Langevin et.al., 2016).

This is common in many teenagers who are in college, are having problems within their homes and also in their social life.

Peer pressure plays a huge part in binge drinking and this can lead to alcohol poisoning, which can lead to death if too much alcohol is consumed. The consumption of too much alcohol can affect the human brain (Goldstein et.al., 2016). This happens more once the teenager become an adolescent and then the teenager will begin to experience brain volume loss (Goldstein et.al., 2016). The memory and executive function becomes damaged in the beginning stage on the consumption of a lot of alcohol (Goldstein et.al., 2016). While on the other hand, interference memory such as learning new material is affected in the later years (Goldstein et.al.,
