I should have had another choice in the poll for "handles stress better than the average person" as there are quite a few who posted here who do.
But the poll numbers show most do not. I just started a second part time job on Wednesday and the stress piled up on me to the point of affecting my work on the primary full time job. Robbing Peter to pay Paul so to speak. I hope it is a passing amount of stress. My ears were ringing more than usual and I could tell I was beyond a healthy amount of stress, possibly inducing a slightly mixed mood which is unusual for my usually stable (well usually tending a bit depressed) self.
