On Jul 14, 2024


There are two types of stressors:

1. External stressors: These are stressors that come from outside sources and are beyond our control. Two examples of external stressors are:
- Traffic congestion: Being stuck in traffic can cause stress due to the frustration of being late or feeling trapped in a situation.
- Financial problems: Struggling with money can lead to stress as it impacts one's ability to meet basic needs and can create uncertainty about the future.

2. Internal stressors: These are stressors that come from within ourselves, such as our thoughts, feelings, and attitudes. Two examples of internal stressors are:
- Perfectionism: Setting unrealistically high standards for oneself can lead to stress as it creates constant pressure to meet those standards.
- Negative self-talk: Engaging in negative self-talk or having a pessimistic outlook can contribute to stress as it can lead to feelings of inadequacy and hopelessness.
