Here is my results. read them and tell me if you think they fit. and after your take your test please post what you are and if you feel it fits you!!!!
you're a Buddha! You're a Buddha. Eyes half-closed, a slight smile playing on your lips — you accept even the most stressful situations with ease. Nothing seems to surprise you. In fact, you may even tell people that you anticipated the problems you encounter. Stress happens, you might say, so why fight it?
Peacefulness takes you a long way toward handling stress, but there's more to it than the path of least resistance. Often, stress is a sign to take action, to make a change, or — at the very least — to get up and jump out of the way! Your placid pace could cause a bottleneck in the stress-processing plant, allowing problems to stick around much longer than necessary. Try moving a little faster the next time you're faced with a sticky situation, and see if you can't be cool and courageous at the same time.

The first line of the result is totally me. I am driven by self-protection and am emotionally reserved and private. However, I have a very quick temper so maybe I see myself differently. I am not a calm person at all. I am always moving around and fidget a lot. I'd say I am quite emotional and easily react to things. Completely different from what the result says.
Hhmmm... That's the second test I took that says completely different things about me.

I just did your test these are my results :
You're an Overreacter. Putting you in the ranks of professional worriers everywhere, your stress style makes for a very dramatic life. You tend to imagine worst-case scenarios whenever possible — in some way, picturing the most severe outcome even feels comforting. But while stressing out before problems occur gives you a sense of control, it can also be exhausting (not to mention time-consuming).
Reacting sharply to stress may also make you prone to angry (even violent) outbursts. Reining in your knee-jerk reactions could help you get this tendency under control and make you a less unpredictable person to be around in times of trouble. So, chill out a little ... we promise the sky won't fall if you stop holding it up!
And it is soooo me, not good is it!!

rotflmao I am not so sure this is true of me all of the time, but a good deal of the time it is..... LMAO
You're a Soother. When trouble strikes, you somehow seem to avoid being hit. Those around you may encounter crises, of course — which is when you launch into action. You're best at helping others ease their stress, offering a kind word or a well-timed "everything's going to be okay."You're a walking affirmation!

Hey guess what?? I'm a Buddha too!! We're Buddha sisters. It's pretty fitting. I don't let much get to me and go with the flow. We all have our problems but I somehow seem to get through them every time.

My stress style follows the path of many steadfast folks: Think of the Brits with their "stiff upper lips," or the Germans with their cool-as-a-cucumber reserve. It amazes those who know you, but stress hardly seems to affect you.In fact, friends might even say you're oblivious to the tension in your life.
Yeah I think they pretty much pegged me.
