--- I learned that, or atleast concluded that I use work and stress as a means to fill in the empty space. That is to say that I rely on my stressors to cope with silence. Stressors in my life include work, side projects that I tend to pick up on a whim, maintaining relationships with those closest around me, and financial issues. While this may not be the best way to deal with the stressors in my life, but I have a tendency to ignore the emotional burden that comes along with the stressor which is not to say that I don't deal with the problem at hand, but rather I ignore the emotional tension that comes along with the burden--essentially making myself numb. While this isn't necessarily the healthiest way to deal with stress, it allows me to deal with the physical problem at hand first before worry about the emotional side of the problem. This helps with prioritizing the problem, for example such as school work without worrying about how to handle the emotional burden such as "will I graduate"? While there certain is a mind, body and soul connection I also think that to a certain degree there is a conflict of interest such as for example--if something might be good for the development of the body it may not necessarily be good for the soul or for the mind.

They turn to you to ask if there are classifications to describe these behaviors and how they might have developed. What do you tell them? Consider the following in your answer:
