Walter is in "Exhaustion stage".Hans Selye's general adaptation syndrome clarifies how our body reacts to pressure. The third stage is exhaustion. There are three phases of pressure: the alarm, resistance and exhaustion stages. The alarm is otherwise called the battle or flight stage. When you're in the alarm stage, your heart pulsates speedier, sending more blood to your arms and legs in the event that you have to battle or escape.
