Stages of Stress
When you are under stress, you experience and pass through three specific stages. These stages are
Alarm, Resistance, and Exhaustion. However, you may or may not pass through all stages of stress,
depending on the events that triggered the occurence.
First Stage: ALARM
When you face any danger, your nervous system immediately sends an emergency signal to your
brain. All the different body parts and their functions coordinate to either fight or flee away from the
danger.
You get more energy and your limbs work faster. This is clearly visible in your facial expressions as
fear or tension.
Normally, this stage of stress can be due to an actual event such as an accident.
It is then primary stress. Otherwise, you could cause your stress like when you are appearing for an
important examination. This is secondary stress.
The general indications of this stage are your fast breathing with sweating and accelerated heart beat
which leads to higher blood pressure and indigestion.
Second Stage: RESISTANCE
When you do not get any relief from the first stage of stress, you slowly start feeling a reduction in
your energy levels.
However, still you want to keep fighting the danger. Hence, you feel exasperated and are impatient
with trivial matters. You miss your sleep schedules and find your resistance breaking Your body
reacts by releasing the stored sugars and fats into your system. This leads to defined changes in
your physical and mental behavioral patterns.
The normal indications of this level are exhaustion, weariness, anxiousness, and being forgetful. You
start smoking and drinking more to come out of your stress. Being weak, you are an easy target for
colds and flu.
Third Stage: EXHAUSTION
When stress continues beyond the second stage and you do not adhere to remedial measures, the
final stress stage of exhaustion settles in. You are now totally tired and drained out of all energy.
You do not even have the desire or the drive to do your work or live your life.
This stage symbolizes a breakdown of your system and your basic physical existence itself. This
leads to loss of mental equilibrium and extreme complications such as heart diseases, blood
pressure, and ulcers.

One of the main causes of stress is the unresolved problems that continue
to plague us. We have to improve the way we handle our problems. By
developing the right attitude and self-esteem, most of these problems
would just melt away. This self-improvement ebook aims to do just that,
in an easy way.
We all want to be happy, don't we? Have we often forgetten that the
main source for happiness is within us - in our minds? We can choose to
be happy, or not happy, by our thoughts and the actions that follow. You
can learn to lower anxiety and stress and increase your confidence. The
simple equation is that the happier you are, the less stressed you will be.
When we are motivated, stress seems to diasapper. This is a common
experience that we can all bear tesitimony to. Why is that so? One
explanation is that stress is often caused by non-achievement, and when
we are motivated to achieve, we are taking the positive action towards
achievement and so our minds are relieved.
We can be under very great stress when we feel powerless. A good
logical step is therefore to increase our personal power. We need to feel
that we are endowed with gifts from God that will help us to overcome the
undesirable things that stress us down. It is time that we empower
ourselves with the capabilities that God has so graciously provided for us.
