one person's stressed is another person's normal way of life. having a fast paced lifestyle doesn't equal stress

i'd say the most stressed region is the one most hard hit by these economic times.

Oh give it a rest. The states are smaller in the NE. If you don't like my poll, don't post on it or vote. Period.

I understand that you now realize how slanted and biased your poll is and there is nothing you can do about it at this point in time. However, you have nothing but useless replies for facts such as you listing the least amount of states for the midwest out of all of your choices. If you wanted this poll to be fair, you would have simply listed each region and left it at that. If you're Seattle's best, I would hate to seattle's worst!

Gotta be the N.E. in my experience. That "yo I'm in your face" thing and all.

Also in the N.E. people swear, A LOT. I hear F**K, S**T, B***H everywhere. It's more common in Mass I feel but kids in Connecticut have some nasty, bratty mouths! I think it's due to a fast, stressed lifestyle.

The Northeast, with a specific mention of Connecticut. Connecticut has the highest per capita income in the USA and yet, it also has some of the poorest and most crime-ridden cities in the USA(Hartford being among them). Big property taxes making it one of the most expensive states to live in. Alot of traffic traveling from NYC and or Boston.

I don't drink coffee, it will give you teeth that makes you look like a pirate. plus it has a drug in it that causes adverse effects including increased heart rate, irregular heart beat, and dehydration. Water, and lots of it, is the way to go. It's the Natural thing to do.
