Support will not prevent stress but it improves your ability to absorb it and bounce back from it. Solitary confinement works in prisons but not at work. If there is not a lot of group support where you work try these things:

You start it. Begin by supporting others yourself. You may be amazed at the returns.
Look around your workplace for cohesive groups and join them. Perhaps your own work group is not supportive. Then seek support elsewhere.
Beware of isolating yourself. Get out and around. Don't wait for support. Seek it.
