General Adaptation Syndrome

The process of physiological stress response consisting of three stages: alarm, resistance, and exhaustion, described by Hans Selye.

Alarm Reaction Stage

The initial phase of the stress response, where the body mobilizes its resources to cope with a stressor, characterized by the activation of the sympathetic nervous system.

Resistance Stage

The second phase of the general adaptation syndrome, where the body adapts to a stressor with increased resistance but at a cost to its resources.

Exhaustion Stage

The final stage of the General Adaptation Syndrome, characterized by depleted physical and mental resources after prolonged exposure to stress.
