Homework Help: psy - revise please

Posted by rose-Ms. Sue on Monday, April 21, 2008 at 11:04pm.

By the time people reach young adulthood, they have an idea of what causes them stress. The text discusses several sources of stress. What sources of stress did the text identify of which you were previously unaware? Has your reading helped you identify any new sources of stress? If so, how could you deal with these?

Answer:
Human being in general, encounters stress throughout their life. In essence, stress can be related to a number of personal issues. The reasons and the causes of stress can usually be arranged into different categories such as physical, mental and social.
After reading several sources of stress discussed in the text, I came to the conclusion, that the type A behavior is one of the sources of stress that I was previously unaware. This type of stress can very often lead to coronary heart disease, resulting from insecurity and low self-esteem. So far, this reading has helped me identify new sources of stress such as irrational beliefs and type A behavior.

Reading this material, helped me have a better knowledge of the short-term stresses that we are exposed in our day-to-day life. Also, areas that need improvement in order to have a more effective and happier life.
