Everyone reacts and copes with situations differently and thus we experience stress to different levels of intensity. Your body sends out various physical, emotional and mental warning signs of stress. The effects of stress among students is:
-Physical signs.
The body’s physical reaction to stress is known as the “fight or flight response” because the body immediately reacts to threat or danger and regardless of whether the hazard is real or perceived.
During the fight response the following series of changes occur is your heart rate increases, your blood pressure goes up, you will feel muscle tension, sleep disruptions, trembling, chronic fatigue, sweaty palms, sleep disruption and others.
-Emotional signs.
The following emotions have been linked to stress. Fear is one of the most powerful negative emotions.
It impedes your life if you constantly think about things that might happen “If I don’t do good work on this project, I may lose my job, and then I won’t have the money we need. Chronic worry is tied to fear and its recurring thought, “what if.”
Reflecting a lack of self-confidence, chronic worry is extremely fatiguing. It takes your mind off what you should be doing, whatever task is at hand. Anger can be a self-destructive emotion when out of proportion to the situation and when if is inappropriately expressed.
Frustration, irritation, and impatience at others or at situations set you up to constantly push and over-schedule yourself. Impatience, which is often related to hostility, causes people to be intolerant of others.
You expect others to conform to your standards of perfectionism and are impatient when they don’t. Rigidity/inflexibility gives a false sense of control and strength.
It limits your choices and sets you up for failure. Perfectionism is a sure way to stay continuously disappointed. You or others will never be able to live up to your expectations and this is extremely fatiguing.
-Mental signs.
You will feel poor concentration, forgetfulness and lack of confidence, even can lead to feeling of helplessness and loss of control, influencing how the body recovers from stress.

Evidence to explain the above:
ReplyDeleteThe body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re stressed over a busy schedule, an argument with a friend etc
your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response may be “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.
Long-term stress can even rewire the brain,
leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression. . . .
