and flight adjustments.
STRESS AND ADJUSTMENTS
âPeople who have low self esteem are more susceptible to stress. Some evidence is that brain differences may also be involved.
âThe stresses which can bring on the fight or flight reaction can be as simple as being in slow traffic or burning the dinner, to losing oneâs job or having a death in the family. In relationships the stresses can be brought on by doing something or neglecting to do something. Neglecting a loved one, forgetting a birthday or anniversary, or neglecting to do oneâs responsibility can be every bit as negative as storming out of the house or coming home too late.
âIf we are confronted by a problem or stress and choose to use âattackâ as a means of solving it we might discuss the problem--with a friend, or with a therapist.
