Move to Austin. According to Organic, dental problems go away or don't exist or something. *shrug*

*grin*

Started counseling last month at the suggestion of the MD who is guiding my weight loss.

Beginning to see how much stress/pressure I have been under for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time and dealing with it.

Turning off the radio and listening to some awesome music: classical, opera, meditation, etc. on my daily commute (1 hour each way) has really helped.

My counselor mentioned an exercise of 3 times a day stopping, asking self "How/what am I feeling?", and writing it down. I am too busy for that so I started doing something similar when I feel stressed or overwhelmed by something - I record the date, time, what I am feeling and anything I have to say about it. This has helped me get beyond what's going on and see the situation as it really is rather than from the skewed perspective of my stressed out self.

I've also got some crystals, incense and sage, etc. to help with the negative energies that love to hang onto me.

That's right! But don't come looking for me if they persist if you do move here. lol

Stressed out? Who Me? Uhm, well, Uh, Yeah, as usual.

JustBeingMe · 07-01-2010, 12:54 PM

My stress is only getting worse. I got a bad news phone call yesterday, and it just seems nothing is working my way, no matter how innocent I am in all this mess.

I have been terribly stressed lately, so much so that I cant seem to think clearly enough to even post. However, I have decided I have to do something about it. SO... I have a plan.

1. Get up at a set time each day. Set an alarm and stick to it.
2. Be more active. Exercise Daily.
3. Spend time with my children playing games, even if I feel like I am overwhelmed or stressed. They will be happier and so will I.
4. Remember that everyone else can just... GO SHOVE IT!!!

For me, stress is a 4 letter word. You pick one.

Indeed. I think I'm handling it well, overall, though. Although I am very grateful for the opportunity to do so, and will appreciate the OT, working every single day over and over and over wears on a soul. Throw the training of someone I'm beginning to think won't work out on top of it as well as trying to pick up the pieces of someone who was notorious for hiding (aka losing) important information and documents and you have an accident-bound train, I'm afraid.

Just another few days and I'll get a day off.... *wistful sigh*
