Environmental stress refers to the negative impact of external conditions or situations on an individual's well-being. In the context of your provided responses, the feelings of fearing failure, disliking school, and arguing with family can be considered environmental stressors, as they are influenced by external situations and may affect an individual’s mental or emotional health.
-
Fearing failure: This can be related to high expectations from school or family and feeling overwhelmed by pressure to succeed.
-
Disliking school: This may stem from various environmental factors such as a harsh educational environment, bullying, or lack of support, leading to stress.
-
Arguing with family: This is a direct interpersonal conflict and can create a stressful home environment, impacting overall well-being.
On the other hand, feeling ashamed and fearing failure refer more to internal emotional responses rather than external environmental conditions. However, the situations causing these feelings may stem from environmental stressors.
