~In universities ,when we mentioned about assignments or presentations then the response coming out from lots of students will be S-T-R-E-S-S!!!
So,what is stress?
In fact,stress is a normal physical response from people towards excessive pressure or other demands placed upon them. The term "stress" was first used by the endocrinologist Hans Selye in the 1930s to identify physiological responses in laboratory animals. He later broadened and popularized the concept to include the perceptions and responses of humans trying to adapt to the challenges of everyday life. In Selye's terminology, "stress" refers to the reaction of the organism, and "stressor" to the perceived threat.
Universities life is full of rushing, datelines, frustrations, and demands. For many students, stress is so commonplace that it has already become a way of their lifestyle. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help us to perform under pressure and motivate us to do our best. But,different individual may responds to stress in different ways as well as their environment. Because of the overabundance of stress in our universities lives, we usually think that stress as a negative experience, but from a biological point of view, stress can be a neutral, negative, or positive experience.

>>The Body’s Stress Response
When you perceive a threat, your nervous system responds by releasing a flood of stress hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol. These hormones rouse the body for emergency action.
Your heart pounds faster, muscles tighten, blood pressure rises, breath quickens, and your senses become sharper. These physical changes increase your strength and stamina, speed your reaction time, and enhance your focus – preparing you to either fight or flee from the danger at hand.

I still agree universities life is full of rushing, datelines, frustrations and demands. Many university students can't successful to control stress and be defeated with stress. But sometimes the stress response also helps we rise to meet challenges.Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation work or drives you to study for an exam when you'd rather be watching TV.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Cohen, stress can be defined as “a process in which environment demands strain an organism’s adaptive capacity, resulting in both psychological as well as biological changes that could place a personal at risk for illness.”
