Stress and coping..

[smiley]

Why is that i can't seem to cope with things aswell as I used to before pni?

I now get stressed very quickly and start to feel the physical symptoms associated to the emotion. For example, headaches or tingling in the body if Im scared?

Will this forever be the case? Or will my ability to deal with stress return back to normal?

Thats me!!

I was exactly the same, although now I have learned not to get so stressed about things and am starting to cope better. I think it just happens naturally over time, but you did need to try and give yourself a break every now and then and remember to force yourself to relax...

Hi Smiley,

I agree with WG, you need to give yourself time hunni. Be kind to yourself was the best advice i've ever got, but you do have to stick to it!!

Hi Smiley,

I really do know what you mean with this one!! But the advice above is spot on in my experience - time is a great healer, plus be good to yourself (hard I know) as this also makes a big difference
