Stressors and Stress Factors
Internal psychological stress can often be the most harmful because there is frequently
no resolution to the stressful situation. These stressors are anxieties about events that
may or may not happen, and the stress response continues to be active as long as one is
worrying about it. The internal psychological stressors include:
• Lifestyle choices
• Caffeine
• Lack of sleep
• Overloaded schedule
• Negative self – talk
• Pessimistic thinking
• Self criticism
• Over analysing
• Mind traps
• Unrealistic expectations
• Taking things personally
• All or nothing thinking
• Exaggeration
• Rigid thinking
• Personality traits
• Perfectionists
• Workaholics
