The Key To Coping Is Stress Resilience

By Leticia Jensen


If a person is stressed because of things like his job or his own personal issues, then both his body and mind will be experiencing stress. Now this type of thing would lead to an emotional breakdown because of all the things that are happening. Of course in order for people to cope with this, they have to have stress resilience.

Now if one is not very familiar with this term, then it is defined as the state of mind that a person has that would allow him to stay positive even in the most adverse of situations that he is experiencing. So even if he is facing something that most normal people are not able to face, he still remains strong no matter what. Because of this, any negative effects on his spirit are minimized.

Now what most people now is that resiliency is a type of characteristic that an individual portrays when he is faced with a situation that will force him to bring out those characteristics. However, the truth is that this sort of attitude does not come overnight. This is actually a process that one will have to undergo.

Now what happens when a person experiences an adversity is that he is pushed back into a corner and has no choice but to fight. When this happens, his mind will slowly condition itself to be able to cope with the situation that he is in so that he will be able to think of a way to solve the problem. Now one thing to take note about resilient people is that they are very confident because they know what exactly is happening which means they know what to do.

People who possess this quality are generally aware of what is going on. In other words, they know what the situation is all about and they know how they are going to handle it so that they will be able to survive. With regard to their own emotions, they know what exactly they are feeling and why.

Now when a problem strikes, it is hard to handle it all alone without a bunch of people who are there as back up. Resilient people know this which is why if one were to see a resilient person, he would see that this person would have a group of friends at his side. During adversities, people will need all the help that they can get in order to go through whatever bad things are happening to them.

Strangely enough, one of the most crucial things that a resilient fighter would possess would be a sense of humor. Even in the worst of times, they would still make light of the situation. This is simply because they know that if they feel bad, nothing will happen which is why they would decide to just brush it off instead.

So as one can see, there is a different way that a resilient fighter would portray himself as compared to other people. These individuals are survivors and they know how to adapt to the environment that they are in. Even in the face of pressure, they can till survive.
