Stress

[NikkiMomof2grls]

When I am stressed I have different ways of reacting, depending on the type of stress.   My fuse gets a little too short when I am overloaded and overwhelmed.  I'm getting better at recognizing this and turning it around before I say or do something I will regret later. 

When I am emotionally stressed, angry I clean, clean, clean.  I just have to do something with that adrenaline.  When I am feeling a bout of depression coming, I withdraw and don't talk or engage much.   I feel emotionally needy and unable to express it.  When I am physically stressed (not enough sleep and downtime) I tend to get sick easier. 

When I am able to get exercise and me-time I don't generally get stressed out very much.  It is pretty much a cure-all.
