During disasters, humans often undergo intense psychological and physiological reactions due to sudden exposure to life-threatening situations, loss, uncertainty, and chaos. Psychologically, individuals may experience fear, anxiety, shock, denial, confusion, grief, and even post-traumatic stress. Physiologically, the body reacts through the activation of the stress response, commonly known as the "fight or flight" reaction, which may result in increased heart rate, rapid breathing, elevated blood pressure, muscle tension, and release of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. These reactions are natural survival mechanisms, but if unaddressed, they can impair decision-making, reduce coping capacity, and lead to long-term mental health issues. Disaster management, therefore, must integrate strategies to address these human reactions effectively to minimize harm and enhance resilience. The first step in managing human reactions is preparedness and awareness. Community education about potential disasters, drills, and psychological preparedness programs can reduce panic and enhance confidence in responding to emergencies.
