Living in the world as
an introvert, Kathy, might have experienced life’s events as more stressful and
outside her control. In the U of P study that I mentioned earlier, the
mice that were deemed less able to manage stress were more passive and
withdrawn. Kathy and Andrew went about meeting their needs quietly and often
alone. They managed their spaces to reduce stress by minimizing change.
I tried to be careful with change though for I knew how upsetting the process was for him. I did not really understand then that it was probably more than upsetting, actually painful.
