Ugh. I don't know what is worse - carrying all my stress and tension in my shoulders or my stomach. I can never actually recall being so stressed out my shoulders hurt (though I will admit to the occasional tension headache), but that's probably because I fall on the stomach-and-digestive end of the stress spectrum. Anytime I get overly stressed, my stomach turns into one big giant knot of tension and I have to force myself to eat, and even then sometimes I can only manage a mouthful or two.
The last few nights it hasn't been my stomach, thankfully - I can eat pretty normally, even if my apatite isn't what it usually is. I have, however, had some rather annoying heartburn. Nothing I can't handle - milk is your friend when antacids are not available - but still frustrating. Stupid stress. You suck, even if you aren't turning me into a weepy mess (for which I admit, I am grateful) like was the case last semester.
On the bright side, at least I'm getting way more calcium than I usually would be.
ugh,
stress
