G'day I'm from Australia and new to this site.
I'm going to post the most common reactions to stress - if you can relate to a fair few of the reactions listed, there's a good chance you are going through stress right now. I'm not qualified in any fields - this list was given to me by Country Fire Services Peer Suppurt Officers. (Councilors) Knowing Reduced Concentration Difficulty Making Decisions Forgetfulness Inability to Think Strait Distressing Dreams Flash Backs Emotional Guilty Anxiety Fear Grief Shock Anger Wanting to Die Feeling Isolated Feeling Hopeless Depression Behavioral Changes to usual Behavior Irritability Crying Agitation Withdrawing from others Increased Substance Intake - Alcohol,caffeine sugar. Excessive Humor or Silence Increased or Decreased Eating Physical Nausea, Vomiting Upset Stomach Rapid Heart Rate Muscle Aches Sleeping Difficulties Early Waking Difficulty Going To Sleep Waking Up Intermittently Intermittently Fatigue Headaches There you have it - write down what you can relate to and talk to your G.P for a recommendation

Unfortunately I experience a lot of those on a pretty consistant basis...its like virtually always being under too much stress. I am thinking my PTSD has something to do with it...as that is more or less constant stress.

If I didn't know otherwise I'd think all of that is normal to....I used to think my anxiety and depression issues were just 'normal' and everyone felt like that most of the time.

All that is normal for me too, even in times of "stability"
