Prolonged stress(and exposure to the steroids) damages hippocampus neurons. PTSD and depression(ie chronic stress) can cause permanent damage to the hippocampus, slow neurogenesis and affect memory.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From studies of baboon clans, this steroid level-&lt;br /&gt;(a) is generally low in high ranking males and high in low ranking males. They are high for high-ranking males when the societal hierarchy is under threat.&lt;br /&gt;(b) is high when the personal threat is unpredictable and arbitrary.&lt;br /&gt;(c) is higher when a baboon is unable to distinguish a real threat from a non-threat.&lt;br /&gt;(d) is lower where baboons have a social outlet for anger.&lt;br /&gt;(e) is lower when they are sociable and not alone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://faves.com/users/misaacs/dot/115151537435"&gt;Comment at Faves&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://faves.com/Out.ashx?u=http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1877467554618436978&amp;amp;q=&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;d=115151537435&amp;amp;t=video,neuroscience,stress,steroid,hippocampus,brain,violence,primate,science,research,medicine&amp;amp;ls=rss"&gt;View original page&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://faves.com/users/misaacs/dot/115151537435</link><guid isPermaLink="false">13006.115151537435</guid><pubDate>Fri, 25 Apr 2008 18:32:17 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>misaacs</dc:creator><dc:subject>video,neuroscience,stress,steroid,hippocampus,brain,violence,primate,science,research,medicine</dc:subject><media:content url="http://i.faves.com/01/ca/e67b/eb9e844a/1a75d05e3e621c7806_5.jpg" type="image/jpeg" width="125" height="94" /><media:thumbnail url="http://i.faves.com/01/ca/e67b/eb9e844a/1a75d05e3e621c7806_1.jpg" width="30" height="23" /></item></channel></rss>
