Selye developed the Three Stage Model of Stress Response. This model consisted of alarm, resistance, and exhaustion.
It is called the alarm response and involves the sympathetic nervous system. The main controller of the alarm response, or the stress response, is the HPA axis, which consists of neural and hormonal communication between the pituitary, hypothalamus, and adrenal glands.
During this phase, if the stress continues, the body adapts to the stressors it is exposed to. Changes at many levels take place in order to reduce the effect of the stressor
The body's alarm response is sometimes called the "fight or flight response."
The stage of stress which includes the fight-or-flight response is the point in which a person feels that their life or well being may be in danger. If escape is impossible, a person may be forced to chose to fight.
The first stage is the alarm stage. The SECOND stage is the resistance stage. The last stage is the exhaustion stage.

An initial reaction to something alarming would be the alarm stage. This is when the adrenaline courses through the body. The resistance stage comes after the alarm stage, and this is when the body repairs any damage to the system that had been caused by the alarm stage.
