Abstract:
The article regards foreign research on stressors, life events and everyday hardships during aging. The course of events in this period is filled with injuries, sufferings and hard feelings. So the article discusses the existence of a number of factors at later ages that can lead to fatigue or weakness in elderly people. We examine the relationship between a psychological stress, everyday troubles and chronical stressors. It can be noted that in comparison to life events, daily troubles can impair physical and mental wellbeing of elderly people to a greater extent than life events in general. The study of everyday annoyances is a promising approach to the study of stress and coping it in old age.
