Until Stress Do Us Part

Kill me now before my head explodes!

Stress can kill you. I can feel my life bar dropping by the second. Assignments are piling up by the second. I'm forgetting things, and then worrying about the fact that I forgot! In the past couple of weeks, I've learned this; the more you let stress take over the more stressed you'll be. The more you procrastinate, the less likely you'll even START what needs to be done. The key is to overcome these little killers. Here's how;

For starters, you have to pull yourself together.  Think rationally about what needs to be done and how you will go about doing so. Time management is really important. Don't let these feelings control your life. Realize that stress is just a result of having a lot on your mind.  Control stress before it controls you!

It also helps to acknowledge that you are stressed in order to deal with it accordingly. Symptoms of stress include; confusion, disorientation, sickness to your stomach, sweating, and depression. In short, it sucks to be me right about now.  Also, if your hair starts to fall out, it might be a good idea to talk to someone. Bottling it up makes it all the worse for you and others because they can't help if they don't know what's going on!.

Remember, things aren't always as bad as they seem.  Talk to someone you trust; it might just save your life or your career. Learn to manage your stress so that you can live your life at a comfortable pace. As Dory puts it, "Just keep swimming!".
