Posted by Staci in : Emotions, General Ramblings , trackbackSo on Wed I had a Dr. appt. I got my Asthma meds refilled, had my FMLA paperworked filled out, and talked to my Dr. about a few things. I discussed my stress issues with him, and the fact that lately I hate people unless I am interacting with them on my terms. I have always had issued in large crowds especially if I am not comfortable with the majority of people there. I manage to deal with it for the most part, but sometimes it is rough and I get really anxious.  I have always had this problem. I had been doing really good lately with the poker crowds and stuff like that, but with the added stress from work it seems to be getting worse again. And my insomina is back. I can fall asleep, but I don’t stay asleep. Which also adds to the problems. This time I am not making them worse by taking diet pills to loose weight, so the bad nights are nothing like they were in December and January. My Dr. said the stress symptoms can actually be a form of depression. It is the same chemical that makes you feel depressed that will cause you to feel stressed. He took some blood to run some tests to rule out a severe problem, and he did agree that having some stablity in my work enviorment might help so he signed off on the part-time shift. It will be a bit less money each paycheck, but better for my health in the long run if it works out. Once the results of the blood work come back, we will discuss options based on the results and if the part-time shift is really helping.
