			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.  |

			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!!!

			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.

			I just found this thread so I will vent.  I am stressed out because my Dr is an incompetent ELF!  And really, that's putting it nicely!  Went in Tuesday to see him and get more tests results from my hosptial stay.  He said i am not sure you have Lupus but it does look like u have Nephritis.  I asked him what that was....he NEVER could tell me.  I come home and look it up...Lupus Nephritis???????  WTF???  I SWEAR he acts like if he causes me to die an early death, he gets some kind of an award!!!

			Thank you Jet.  I have never known anyone to have Lupus but the way my health has went down in 2 yrs I am not sure what you would call severe.  I just hope and pray this Nephritis doesn't make me have to have dialysis or worse.

			I was a little stressed earlier today.  I had my first day off in almost two weeks and came in to one problem after another and I never seemed to get situated before another cropped up.  I'm used to putting out fires, but c'mon!  Let a girl eat!  Two bites of oatmeal and a small yogurt do not consitute a well balanced meal no matter how you look at it, much less two.
