Personality and Stress
Freud
Stress comes from the tension
between your id (impulses)
and the superego (society).
This is controlled by the ego
(identity).
You try to use defense
mechanisms to protect your
ego.
Jung
Your personality arises
through individuation.
Stress may result from
conflicts between
your conscious and
unconscious.

The stages of handling
unmet expectations are
similar to the stages of
dying: denial, anger,
bargaining, depression,
and finally acceptance.
Frankl
Stress can arise from
the failure to make
