    Roger is in the state of resistance

    Explanation:

    Hans Selye general adaptative syndrome (GAS) described three predictable stages the body uses to respond to stress.

    1) Alarm stage

    2) Resistance stage

    3) Exhaustion stage

    1) The alarm stage: The stage prepares an individual to respond accordingly to the stressor they are experiencing. This is the awareness stage where a distress signal is sent to the hypothalamus part of the brain.

    2) The resistance stage: The body tries to restrict or adapt to the stressor. The body tries to counteract the physiological changes that happened during the alarm reaction stage.

    3) The exhaustion stage: This is the last stage of the general adaptative syndrome. After a series of trial of recovering from the stressor, the body can no longer cope to fight the stress. The individual becomes tired, depression may set in, feeling of anxiety and so on.

    In state of resistance.

    Explanation:

    In the state of resistance, the body is repaired through an stressful situation. There is a normalization of vital functions such as heart rate and blood pressure and also less release of cortisol.

    The body remains alert even in the repair phase, but when the individual is able to overcome this stressful phase, the body continues to repair itself until vital functions are normalized.

    So if the person is unable to manage stress, the body will consequently remain on high alert and learn more and more to deal with increasingly high levels of stress.

    Some symptoms of the resistance phase are difficulty in concentration, high irritability and frustration.
