- I must face it, I'm stressed virtually every moment of my life. I feel
- that I thrive on stress (if it wasn't there, I would become very bored
- very quickly). I don't know why I feel under so much pressure, as it is
- from no one person in particular. However, anything I do in my life, I
- end up with a head stress (feels a bit like when thunder is in the air).
- Despite my stress, I often feel totally at ease with myself - which is
- really strange for me. I an emotionalist too, which cannot help things
- (although I think people that deal with emotions tend to be rather
- stressed anyway). I must say I have had a very stressful relationship
- over the last year (coupled with exams followed by university etc). We
- are still together, but I become very paranoid (because I am 300 miles
- away from her during term time. It is not that I don't trust her or
- anything like that, simply that I wonder if she can cope with me. I
- really do put immense strain on her through my deep examination of my
- emotions (she says I shouldn't put myself down - but I usually do this
- to justify my attitude). I am seeing her this weekend (as it is my
- birthday - hbdtm), however I have a funeral to go to this Friday,
- which will not put me in the best frame of mind for the weekend. (I am
- usually quite good - but soemtimes I can have really bad periods when I
- tend to make others feel guilty about not treating me as I want). I
- suppose that I am a manipulator when it comes down to it (but I do it in
- probably the worst manner as other people usually feel guilty).
-
- I have been reading this group for 6 months now, and this is just about
- the first posting I have sent (I am observer too you see, I gain alot of
- experience by observing others and their problems). Hmm - dodgy character
- you are all saying. Well, I am not a nasty individual, just a stressed
- out confused one...
-
- Take care, stressed
