Not really. It depends on the stressors you have. It isn't like everyone can avoid their stressors, like death of a loved one. Some stressful things aren't really things one wants to avoid either - Entering a new marriage or moving can be really stressful.
I had all three of those particular ones within a short time frame. My father died one May, I got married in July, and moved overseas at the beginning of August.
Other stressors have more flexibility. My ex-husband causes a great deal of stress, and I eventually left him. After that (and before I moved away), I avoided him.
Managing or avoiding really depends on the situation. And really, being able to avoid stress (when possible) depends on a person being able to manage their own stress enough to say enough is enough.
