The order is:alarm, resistance, exhaustion


Hans Selye depicted three unsurprising stages the body uses to react to stressors, called general adaptation syndrome (GAS).

The first stage is the alarm stage (which gives a burst of vitality)

The second stage is the resistance stage (the body endeavors to oppose or adjust to the stressor).

The third stage is exhaustion stage (because that vitality or energy is drained.)
