Take care of your friends.
I do not handle stress well I never really have.
Deadlines, schedules, airplanes pretty much all of it upsets me. I can do all these things, but my anxiety in the process probably makes it unpleasant for those around me. I must travel out of state for surgery and make it to a hand full of appointments beforehand I am stressed over that. We have deadlines at work. The surgery is like 61 years delayed so I am stressed wondering what will derail it now. Will it work as well as I hope [of course it won’t my hopes are not grounded in reality] or at least as well as I expect [much more realistic expectations]. While I am out of town will I drive my host crazy? All of that playing on a family drama background with my son in lay getting deported from China [that did get sorted out, but it was a stomach wrencher while it was going]. And tied in with things I never learned how to talk about in any meaningful way and I…
Sigh, I know one thing at a time… one step at a time. Lately, the steps have included crying spells, hyperventilation, and lightheadedness and depending on my partner to make the airplane reservations.
Well in three weeks it will be over then I hope to have some brain cells for something else.
