Question

Situations: For the past three nights, Therese has not been getting enough sleep from her usual eight hours because of her forth coming exams. Today is the day of her final exams. She wakes up feeling drowsy and with a headache. Her body feels like a ton, and she has to literally drag herself out of bed to get up and prepare to school. She takes a shower, dresses up quickly, bypasses and ignores his sister Christine, who is looking at her quizzically, and her parents at the breakfast table. Immediately, the family gets affected by Therese behaviour. Christine is thinking her sister is having a bad mood; she thinks Therese woke up on the wrong side of bed, and therefore ignores her as well. Her mother thinks she is uptight about the final exams, mentions about it, but was just given a stare by Therese who mumbles that she is okay but just tense about the exams. Her father simply looks at her, gives some comforting words of support, and continues with his breakfast. In school, all the noise and chatter, and the pressure of taking the finals so early in the morning agitated Therese. She is not smiling today, which is very unlike her usual self. Her temper is short, irritable, and she is giving nasty look at people who continue to annoy her. She goes over her notes and tries to memorize some phrases and concepts, but her throbbing headache makes it almost impossible to cram. She thought of taking some pain reliever earlier, but decided. a can of her favourite caffeine-laden carbonated cola drink would help, but this is providing her very little relief. She slams the book and lays her head and unhappy. Therese feels miserable. She feels unsure or herself and unhappy. She is tense and nervous. Her seatmates stays away from her, although her seatmate tries to strike up a conversation, Therese just moves her head in response. However. Deep inside, she knows what is affecting her and tries to put things under control. She starts to pray silently, and when the bell rang, she raises her head and faces the day, and final exams. Although still feelings drowsy, she calm herself down and mentally prepares for what is up ahead. Explain the five aspects (Physiological,Cognitive, Social, Spiritual, Psychological) of a whole person in relation to the details of Therese's story? What is your conclusion?
