Potential Questions

1. What role does perception play in the stress process?
2. If some one is laid-back and low-key, does that indicate they handle stress well? Can someone be stressed on the inside and not show it on the outside?
3. If stress has the ability to impact all our major body systems, are all illnesses related to stress in some way?
4. How is psychological wellness related to stress from social and personal factors? Does a psychologically well person naturally have less stress?
