How do men adapt?

Researchers have noticed several trends in how men tend to cope with stress. They may be less likely to:

• Report symptoms of stress
• Participate in stress-relieving activities
• Say that they need emotional support
• Have a strong, diverse emotional support network.

It's important to point out that many men are aware of their stress level and work to manage it. The key is to understand how you respond to stress so you can develop an ongoing plan for resiliency.
