Stress arises from a variety of underlaying issues—including from people. Knowing how to deal with toxic individuals can help you avoid or overcome the physical ramifications of having people who cause stress in your life.

These physical issues happen because of the emotional stress you deal with every time you encounter someone who makes you feel angry, sad, frustrated, or worse. Emotional stress is just as bad for speeding up the aging process as physical stress is.

Do you ever feel like this?

Stress can cause disease, immune system deterioration, and worse. You might have to deal with a friend or family member who causes you stress, or it might be a coworker or someone you encounter regularly, like a neighbor.

Whoever it is, you need to learn how to deal with people to mitigate the effect on your health.
Start by identifying who the people are in your life who cause you stress. The way to tell if someone causes you stress is every time you think about being around them or you actually are around them, you have a visceral reaction—your stomach gets tied up in knots or you have an emotional reaction. You might feel anxious or angry. People who cause stress often look at the negative in everything around them, including in you.

They always leave you feeling worn out. These people complain about how bad their life is or they compare their life to yours and tell you how lucky you are. They often tear down other people and can be subconsciously or even deliberately cruel in their comments or actions.

clipart: toxic relationships They don't accept blame for anything going on in their life, but blame their friends, family, coworkers or even you. These people are always where the drama is or they're the cause of whatever drama is going on.

They want you to be their shoulder to lean on and every time you spend time with them, you leave feeling a lot worse than when you arrived. You can put a stop to the drama that comes from other people.

Begin by going on the offensive. You already know this person or those people are going to cause you stress. Know your course of action before meeting up with them. Determine ahead of time how you are going to handle it when the stress kicks in from being with them.

Don't let someone else have the emotional reins in your life. People will say and do things that cause stress, but they can't be in charge of how you respond to that stress. Only you can do that.

You can feel empathy toward someone without letting them emotionally wreck you. This often originates with a friend who gets angry about something…anything… and stokes anger in you as well.

When someone does stress you out, don't carry it with you. Deal with it immediately and then let go. When the topic of conversation or their actions trigger stress, either change the subject or address the actions directly. Keep your distance emotionally as much as possible and if that's not possible, then keep a physical distance if you have to. It's all about buffer space.
