"Being a little high-strung might pay off ― at least when it comes to managing your health.
Neuroticism, the trait associated with having excessive anxiety, guilt and nervousness, may lower a person’s risk of dying early, according to a new study.
The research, published in the journal Psychological Science, found that those who score high for the personality type had a slightly reduced risk (about 8 percent) of death from all causes, especially cancer and cardiovascular disease, compared to those who had lower levels of the characteristic.
Researchers examined data from more than 300,000 people in the United Kingdom from ages 37 to 73.

They were also asked to rate how healthy they felt. The study volunteers were monitored for approximately six years."
