Overview

Acute stress disorder was first described in 1920 by Walter Cannon.[1]

Historical Perspective

Acute stress response" was first described by Walter Cannon in the 1920s as a theory that animals react to threats with a general discharge of the sympathetic nervous system. The response was later recognized as the first stage of a general adaptation syndrome that regulates stress responses among vertebrates and other organisms.[1]
