Abstract
Carole had just turned 33 years old as she rounded off her 9th year of marriage to Ross. There had been an ongoing discussion between the two of them during the past year about whether or not to have a fourth child. This issue created some tension for Carole; she remained the undecided one. She put further discussion off with the excuse of waiting until after the Christmas holidays to make a decision. They had been in their new home for less than one year, and with all of the commotion, Carole had neglected to start her Christmas shopping—another burden on her mind. The combination of these events made for a very stressful period in her life, rendering her vulnerable to overload.
