 I received a score of 11 out of 24. The test told me that I have unnecessary stress in my life and that I should evaluate my habits. For the most part i agree with my score because I do tend to stress myself out when it comes to things that I simply have no control over. In other words I am a huge control freak! In my opinion I believe this is a learned trait because my mother along with every woman in my family are also control freaks. We think our ideas are better and like things to go in order or a certain way. Now of course this is hardly ever how events actually go, so we tend to silently stress ourselves out until the smallest thing finally sets us off! Often times I have to force myself to step away from any situation where I feel out of control and rationalize it . Unfortunately you cannot speak rational thoughts to an irrational person and of course when I'm stressed I'd say I'm pretty irrational.Probably my favorite thing to do when I am stressed is to get a pedicure! After this I am like a new person and I encourage everyone to get one! Yes, even guys.

                           Sincerely, Ms. Control Freak

  1. I think I get a lot of my habits involving stress from thew women in my family as well! It's like we look up to them our whole lives and develop great habits but some bad ones too..

  2. Habits, I agree are a big reason for stress. Keep going to get those pedicures.

  3. I had the same score and I completely understand your concept of dealing with irrational people. Also a pedicure sounds fantastic!
