Personality and Stress

Your personality has a large bearing on the way that stress can affect you.

Individual differences have been shown to influence stress and health through:

-the motives the individual pursues

-the way that the individual appraises circumstances (are they easily riled or depressed?) 

-coping mechanisms (do they turn to alcohol or drugs or do they repress their emotions?)
