Stress

[Angel7393]

I am so stressed from work and school that I am constantly crying and feel like crap and I fell like the anxiety attack will never end. I don’t know what to do anymore.

Hello Angel7393. I am sorry to hear things are so difficult for you. You mention you go to school. I was wondering if there is a school counsellor there because it may help you to talk to them. If not, have you ever been to your doctor about your anxiety? They will be able to offer you support. It is very hard struggling alone. Well done for reaching out on here. That is very brave.

I don’t go to school on campus so I don’t really have an actual person to communicate with. I’ve thought about a doctor, but I’m one of those people that likes to fix things on my own. I don’t like having to depend on someone else.

I can understand you like to be independent. Maybe discussing things online could help.

[Angel7393 in reply to Hidden]

I’m hoping. But I’m also not very good at expressing how I feel either. :/

Could it help to try and write it down? Maybe in bullet points just so you do not have to give too much detail. It may make it a bit clearer for you. I am very sorry things did not work out in three of your classes. It must be very hard to study when you feel anxious and have other things going on.

I’m so exhausted from work that I actually fall asleep while studying....and my boss just adds more to it by making me feel like shit and that I can’t do anything.

Gosh, that is such a lot of stress. I can understand why it is causing you anxiety. I know juggling work and study is really tough. Is there any way either one could be cut back?

Not really I’m a full time college student and have a full time job. I won’t get the financial aid I need to cover the costs if I am not a full time student. 😔

I understand. That is very difficult for you. Perhaps it can help to share on here when you are struggling. It may help to know you are not alone. I hope today is a better day.

Hi I’m soo sorry to hear you’re feeling this!! If you don’t mind me asking what do you feel is causing you the most stress there? If it would help to talk about it maybe?🦋🌻

It’s all of it together, I’m failing three of my four classes. My boss isn’t helping any by putting more pressure in me and telling me to up my game. My boyfriend is trying to help and I love him to death, but I feel like no one knows how I feel and I’m not good at expressing my feelings so I don’t know what to do.

Angel7393 thank you for sharing, I am sorry that you are going thru a difficult time. You are not alone. I found it helps to talk to someone about it. Getting those feelings out is a big help. Have you tried to talk to a school counselor, trusted family member/friend? Also, I took a look at my daily schedule and the weekly schedule. My intention was to see where I could incorporate a little "me" time to recharge and focus on positivity before I began my day. taking a few minutes break away throughout the day was a bonus. Remember to believe in yourself. take a deep breath of fresh air and drink water when you can. Hope these suggestions help you like they did for me. Hugs of encouragement.
