A social stressor is an external factor or event within a social context that induces stress or anxiety in an individual. Examples include interpersonal conflicts, social isolation, discrimination, or major life changes like divorce or job loss. These stressors can affect mental health and well-being, as they often challenge one's social support systems and coping mechanisms. The impact of social stressors can vary based on personal resilience and the availability of support networks.
