SCARED – SCIENCE STUDY

If someone believes that they will deal well with stress, they generally do physically deal well with stress. The stress response (ie. the physical response to fear) ends quicker after a negative arousal for people who categorize themselves as resilient, suggesting resilience is not just a psychological phenomenon.
