Thats the big question. How are you dealing with the stress in your life? I woke up with a headache this morning at 4am, its 4pm and my head is still hurting. I’m sitting here asking myself right now if it's a sinus headache or a stress headache.
I have taken Alieve, and Motrin and my headache never went away. As I'm thinking about how I'm feeling and what I need to take next I decided to drop in to say hello and to write about stress and its nasty ways. The word is that stress can be a silent killer.
Stress is a normal reaction the body has when changes occur, resulting in physical, emotional and intellectual responses. Stress management training can help you deal with changes in a healthier way.
Stress is a normal part of life; it's how we handle it that can make or break us. Stress can affect our sleep, mood and health. We all need to have healthy ways to burn off stress whether it's by:
- Exercising
- Journaling
- Meditation
- Relaxing
I encourage you to think about how stress is affecting you and what you are going to do about it. How stress is affecting you and the ways you currently manage your stress is another thing to think about. We all should have a plan to manage our stress.
Stress can cause:
. high blood pressure
. aches and pains
. chest pains
. racing heart
. headache
. dizziness
. shaking
. stomachache
. digestive problems
. trouble being intimate
. exhaustion
. trouble sleeping
Stress can also lead to emotional and mental symptoms such as:
- Anxiety
- Irritability
- Depression
- Panic Attacks
- Sadness If you are dealing with any of these symptoms get help or take action:
- Becoming less social
- Eating disorders
- Tearful
- Tiredness
- Headache
- Teeth grinding
Try managing stress with some of the suggestions above, but if you are feeling very overwhelmed you should speak with your personal doctor about stress management techniques. We have to take care of us, we only have one life. Let's consider our value of life.
It's worth more than its weight in gold. This story is definitely for me too, as I am an emotional eater and I'm not making the best food choices. If you would like to add a comment or feedback, please do so.
Let's help each other along this journey. Stress is inevitable, we all deal with stress in some form or fashion. Some of us have learned to manage it better than others. I know I'm also guilty of picking up things over and over again when I clearly should be giving them to Him.
Casting all your cares upon Him, for He cares for you. He cares for me and you, He will bare those burdens if we give them to Him whole heartedly.
Yes, I know it's easier said than done. I can't tell you how many times I have fasted about a certain thing that was going on in my life, I said I give this person or this situation to Him, then within the next minute I'm worrying and stressing over it again.
He can carry more than we could ever imagine. He holds the weight of the world in His hands so surely, He can deal with our daily issues.
I hope that this helps someone, I hope that you will be encouraged even in the midst of your stress and trials. Some of the content in my story was found on google.com.

I was going to relax this evening. Tune out, hunker down, look after myself. I need it. I am exhausted. Thoroughly used up. And it's only Wednesday. Not even half way through the week. A week that in the UK, is Mental Health Awareness week. I don't know who decides these things, who gets to co-opt a day, a week, a month, and declare it a thing about a thing. But I do know a lot about mental health. I know a lot about mental health AND I know a lot about working for the UK's National Health Service. And so it was with interest that I clicked play on the below video, earlier today. By the time I finished, I was in tears.

The Drake-Kendrick Rap Beef: A Case Study of Mob Psychology
The following article contains disturbing allegations of criminal activity that some readers may find upsetting. The most famous example of “mob psychology” is the Salem Witch Trials. Since witches do not exist, the absurdity of that situation is self-evident. Yet, the same psychological dynamics which brought that almost comedic tragedy to bear are ready to be tapped into in any society at any time. The Red Scares and the internment of Japanese-Americans are other notable examples in American history. Similar things have happened on much smaller scales, though typically within a continuum, such as the famous trial after the Boston Massacre or, more recently, the case involving the Central Park 5. Sometimes, it’s a zeitgeist of paranoia that sweeps over a nation; at other times, it concerns just one person and a small group of people to outnumber them. Yet, no matter how many people are involved, it always looks the same.Four characteristics of mob psychology allow it to self-perpetuate with devastating consequences: 1) it abandons nuance, 2) it labels defenders of the accused as guilty of the same thing as the accused, 3) it rewards those who promote its aims, and 4) it does bad in the name of good.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
