Depends on many factors such as why 'they' chose to be Christian, what kind of Christianity they adhere to, their geographical location and whether or not Christianity is accepted, how and where they choose to be vocal, whether or not they can accept that others do not choose this religion ect. Factors not directly related to religion would have to be looked at too. So, the answer is I don't know, but from my own anedotal evidence, Christians in North America would like to think so because of the oh evil secular world, but also acknowledge the psychological benefits of religion.

No
As a Christian Pastor, writer and Evangelist I can safely tell you that stress is not an issue in my life.
Purpose, meaning and fulfillment fill my life.

Until they become saints yes...
But by that time ...Christians must live in worse times then in roman time . Because if they see satan (God's enemy , who talked to saints and some ''comon''people) -they are called fanatics...The psychologists are saying that they are having halucinations if they see the demons...because psychologists , because of Jung and Freud who said that God is created by our imagination , and demons are created by our imagination...-are saying what their teachers and founders said (Jung and Freud , Adler ..)
It is worse then in Roman times because it was better to be eaten by a lion then be considered a mad men if you see the devil .If you are eaten by a lion it is perfect , but being considered mad destroys you , as human being .I hope God will fire the psychologists....

depends on what you compare their lives to.
i dont think religion is the main key.
your life is as stressful or as carefree as you make it yourself :)
