Word for someone who is constantly yet excessively stressed

English Language & Usage Asked by ASA MATTHEWS on May 20, 2021

What is a noun for someone who unduly stresses? For example, a worrywart is someone who constantly yet excessively worries. However, there is a vast difference between "stressing" and "worrying," so "bundle of nerves" does not count. Therefore, a _______ is someone who constantly yet excessively stresses.

Any help is appreciated!

One Answer

While "burnout" is a noun synonymous with fatigue and apathy born out from stress, it does not suggest a person with said traits. I would use a neurotic to fit the bill.
