A nurse is discussing the psychological and behavioral manifestations of stress with a group of clients. The nurse should include which of the following manifestations?

A. Weakened immune system: This is a physiological manifestation of stress rather than a psychological or behavioral one. Chronic stress can suppress immune function, but it does not directly reflect mental or behavioral responses. B. Increased sadness: This represents a psychological manifestation of stress. Clients experiencing stress may report feelings of sadness, irritability, or mood changes, reflecting the emotional impact of stress on mental health. C. High blood pressure: Elevated blood pressure is a physiological response to stress due to increased sympathetic nervous system activity, not a psychological or behavioral manifestation. D. Disordered eating: This is a behavioral manifestation of stress. Clients may overeat, undereat, or engage in irregular eating patterns as a coping mechanism in response to stressors. E. Delayed development: Delayed development is typically associated with chronic conditions or developmental disorders rather than acute psychological or behavioral responses to stress in adults, making it less relevant in this context.
