What can trigger stress?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Very subjective: There are many things that can trigger stress in individuals. It is not the incidents that happen, but the personal interpretation of what has happened that causes emotional distress for people. Look at what you are thinking about what happened, to see if you are "awfulizing" the incident, and work wtih a counselor to develop a more rational way of dealing with your normal stresses.

Stress: Stress can be caused by various factors but chronic psychological stress is usually caused by misperceptions of interactions and situations. Do your best to perceive accurately, it takes practice and the discipline to learn to perceive the truth but the benefits are enormous. Best.
