2.6 STRESS AND ANXIETY

Lecture 1 - Stress




Stress is multidimensional: → can be perceived/thought of in different
dimensions

1. I DIMENSION → It can be perceived as an external stimulus (stressor)
2. II DIMENSION → how we respond to the stressor (strain)
3. III DIMENSION → it can be a process/an interaction between the strossor
and the strain (transactions) → each individual process has an agent that
process the stressors and depending on how that agent appraises the
stressor ,the response to the stressor varies

,Eustress




Both stress and distress attack a person’s resources → but distress is usually
more damaging

,Social Stress
➢ nowadays we don’t have to deal with life threatening situations as much as
our predecessors

➢ Stress can also come from social situations (e.g. crowded places and
exams…)




- Red line → epinephrine targets the target organs
- Blue line → norepinephrine target blood vessels → restricts the vessels →
blood travels faster
