Answer 1

Answer:

High levels of sensitivity to stress

Explanation:

People who are highly sensitive to stress tend to get themselves worked up by things that may not be regarded as too much stress for some people. They get too anxious and exhibit high levels of social stress. People who are highly sensitive to stress worry too much about almost everything, always feel like they never meet their expectations, worry too much about what others say or feel about them, and overreact to normal personal mistakes. Paula in the example exhibits all these symptoms to probably come to a conclusion that she has high level of sensitivity to stress.
