The answer is the exhaustion stage.

Explanation:

The general adaptation syndrome, a model which intends to describe people's response to stressful situations, is divided into three stages: alarm, resistance and exhaustion.

In the example, Margo is likely at the last stage, exhaustion, which occurs after all the energy has been drained from the person, and he/she might be unable to enjoy any other experiences for a while.
