Jag gjorde en snabb googling på "stress reactions":

"Traumatic stress is brought on by unexpected and emotionally powerful events ("critical incidents") that overwhelm the individual's usual coping abilities. Critical incidents may arise in the context of a major disaster or emergency, and could be, for example, injury or death of a colleague, hostage taking, deaths of children, undergoing great personal risk,
being a powerless witness of violence, or seeing or being associated with a tragic event accompanied by intense media coverage (especially if this is inaccurate).
The following are mental survival mechanisms that allow us to deal with the event:
Emotional numbing, changes in the perception of time, along with a sense of ones live flashing before ones eyes, highly focused attention or tunnel vision, hyperarousal with sharpened senses.
These initial responses can be replaced in the period of time immediately after the incident by:
Hyperactivity, exaggerated humour, argumentativeness, social withdrawal, fear, anxiety, sadness, grief, memory problems,
poor concentration, slow thinking and loss of perception in addition to the physical symptoms mentioned above."
