I am really losing it. I cannot take anymore. I am about to go postal at work, not literally, but figuratively. I am dealing with far too much stress all at once in every area of life: love, financial and work.
I told my husband tonight that I NEED to get to the beach OR nature of some sort this weekend or I'm really going to explode. How does one even cope with stress in EVERY area of life???? All I am able to do is shut down, shut it all out and go to bed early. |

I hear exercise can help relieve stress (not that I have tried it). I'm sorry you feel this way. It sounds awful.

And TY -- that's incredibly sweet of you! I've very touched by the gesture.   I just... well, to be honest, I wish I could dial back the clock and be a kid myself again at times!!! I don't like adult responsibilities!!!! It's VERY stressful: Holding a full-time job that makes you crazy insane with stress, holding BIG responsibilities at work, having to meet all your bills, rent and pay off debt, not to mention TRYING to save money.... for the future... when you have NONE! AND, love and marriage on top of it all????? It's a whirlwind. My oh my. It's too much. I wish I could be your age again. Ahhh......enjoy your age, enjoy your freedom..... Ok, I talk all negatives right now, but that's because I have far too much stress in all directions!!!! ARGH.

Like I said though I will listen if you ever want to vent. I really loved your post of abuse and the victim and it was so spot on. |

Stress is not fun, no not at all. Definitely can relate to having stress from different areas of life that can seem overwhelming. For me exercise helps or watching a funny movie. Lately I’m motivated to exercise since my jaw pain from TMJ acting up and exercise helps usually so does yoga and meditation.

Thank you all.
 I drove to work today, and drove right back home. I called in sick. I got zero sleep last night, am totally anxious and had a fight with my husband last night. Nothing feels good right now. I am glad I am home on a "sick" day... more like a much needed mental health day. I am not well. |

Thanks Divine. It’s 90 degrees out. I don’t think I’ll be going outside.

I understand the feeling. I feel like I'm fighting the world right now because of all the things I have to deal with from my health insurance and fighting my providers to give me adequate care, to my apartment complex and their incompetence, and the housekeeping service...then stress on the work front, which isn't really that bad and it's just stuff I need to deal with, but when it's combined with myself being so sick...sigh... I guess I don't envy you that your work situation is so bad. I am just trying to focus right now on the positives and the things I can be grateful for. And I know everything will work out. Just keeping faith in myself that I can manage this. I hope that helps.

Thanks everyone. Turns out I’m very sick.. a super bad cough and head cold. I’ve been hunkering down all day in bed. Have to work tomorrow. My work situation isn’t THAT horrible. It’s just not suiting me anymore.
