It can affect you by making you angry, paranoid, self doubtful, tense, increase blood pressure, increase heart rate. Envy/jealousy comes from the belief that we are missing out on something in life. And what we believe in our minds, our minds create as reality. So when you think, 'Why does he get to be so rich?', you are affirming to yourself that you dont have enough money. And, as a result, you create the circumstances in your life which result in you not having enough money.

Jealousy typically refers to the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that occur when a person believes a valued relationship is being threatened by a rival.

When we feel threatened we typically experience the fight or flight response.

The fight-or-flight response, also called the acute stress response, was first described by Walter Cannon in 1929. The theory states that animals react to threats with a general discharge of the sympathetic nervous system. The response was later recognized as the first stage of a general adaptation syndrome that regulates stress responses among vertebrates and other organisms. In layman's terms, an animal has two options when faced with danger: they can either face the threat ("fight"), or they can avoid the threat ("flight").

The onset of a stress response is associated with specific physiological actions in the sympathetic nervous system, both directly and indirectly through the release of epinephrine and to a lesser extent norepinephrine from the medulla of the adrenal glands. The release is triggered by acetylcholine released from preganglionic sympathetic nerves. These catecholamine hormones facilitate immediate physical reactions by triggering increases in heart rate and breathing, constricting blood vessels in many parts of the body—but not in muscles (vasodilation), brain, lungs and heart (increasing blood supply to organs involved in the fight)—and tightening muscles. An abundance of catecholamines at neuroreceptor sites facilitates reliance on spontaneous or intuitive behaviors often related to combat or escape.

Normally, when a person is in a serene, unstimulated state, the "firing" of neurons in the locus ceruleus is minimal. A novel stimulus (which could include a perception of danger or an environmental stressor signal such as elevated sound levels or over-illumination), once perceived, is relayed from the sensory cortex of the brain through the thalamus to the brain stem. That route of signaling increases the rate of noradrenergic activity in the locus ceruleus, and the person becomes alert and attentive to the environment.

If a stimulus is perceived as a threat, a more intense and prolonged discharge of the locus ceruleus activates the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (Thase & Howland, 1995). The activation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to the release of norepinephrine from nerve endings acting on the heart, blood vessels, respiratory centers, and other sites. The ensuing physiological changes constitute a major part of the acute stress response. The other major player in the acute stress response is the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

i have seen one lady head right into a worried breakdown by way of envy. She lived her existence putting her nostril into the affairs of her acquaintances.

An party: She accused a neighbor of attempting to break into her cellar window. under no circumstances befell. i'm particular she had an underlying medical difficulty that predisposed her to this habit. She gave up the ghost over a twelve months in the past. no man or woman misses her. it is unhappy.

Envy is admiring something someone elsehas that you want but don't have. Envy can make you feel longing.....
Jealousy is when you wish you had something that someone else has, and feel negatively towards them for it. Jealousy can make you feel like you're lacking something. Jealousy can make you feel sick.

Jealousy can make you sick. It causes blind anger. Genesis 37:41. It is a sin. God wants us to be content with what we have.
