Variabilitatea stressului functie de persoana

The effects of stress-producing situations vary enormously among different
individuals. The totally personal way in which we filter all events
determines how stressful they are. The theory of stress must be modified to
include the mind-body connections, for such invisible elements as
interpretation, belief, and attitude are enormously important in the actual
workings of the stress response.

External stressors are basically triggers. If you don't feel triggered,
there is no stress. A prevailing myth has arisen that some people thrive on
stress. They perform best under high-pressure deadlines and blossom in the
heat of competition. What's really happening is that they aren't being
triggered physiologically.

Management of stress therefore turns out to be much more complicated than is
generally supposed, because a person's interpretation of any situation is
basically projected from his memory–our reactions to new situations are
always colored by our experiences in the past.
Instead of appraising each new situation afresh, we slip into old
categories. Neutralizing these old impressions is essential, for otherwise
you have no control over stress–the stressful event will trigger your
response automatically, making you its prisoner
