out of friends
There are alot of things that cause me problems in my life, but if i had to genralize one single term that qualifies as the singular baine of my existence, its stress. Stress is the thing that all those other problems produce, its the thing that sticks with you, and bothers you constantly until you relieve it somehow, its also the thing that can push you over the edge.
There are lots of ways to relieve stress, none of which have i mastered to date. I also find that I experience many different kinds of stress, each requiring its own particular outlet, thus making stress relief a stress in-and-of itself.
So...how to get rid of the stress. I wish there was a way. I wish there was some kind of "chicken soup" cure. Take two and call me in the morning. If it were only that simple. I find that the best thing to do, depending on what it is thats stressing you, is to single it out, and figure out why its causing you so much stress and then decide upon the best course of elimination.
I think I'll just make a trip to this great mental hospital I know....and stay for a while.....a LONG while!
(and if I'm lucky, they'll perscribe me some good drugs!)
Sometimes (NOW!), i just feel like life is too much for me to handle. Like I woke up one morning and decided to take life by the balls, and am realizing too late that it's too much for me, and that I cant handle it. I spend a lot of time feeling like i grew up too fast, like my childhood was over before it began. Suddenly, I'm plunged into a world of bills, and deadlines, and drama, not to mention TRUE ACCOUNTABILITY, which is something I wasn't used to dealing with up to now(not to say that I'm dealing well at all!) I find myself easily overwhelmed by these things. "Stressed out" to coin a phrase, and all too often.
My friends feel like I'm too serious all the time and that I never have any fun. They say that I bring them down. I dont know what to do about it to fix it. I cant make the stress magically dissappear. The only thing I can do is not plague with my presence any more.
My number of friends just dropped dramatically.
To look at the bright side, hopefully my stress level will take a plunge as a result, as well.
