stressed

[caroc3]

How do you keep stress low at work? I'm trying not to get overwhelmed and stressed out, but I work with women who seem to constantly be giving me a hard time and stirring up drama. They know I'm pregnant. I know it's best to ignore, but my hormones just want to scream.

I'll look into that, thank you!

I teach high school, so I know all about stress.  I've been practicing breathing techniques as often as I can.  It's something that has helped me over the years to control my emotions (anger, frustration, sadness).  It's still, thankfully, helping now that I am pregnant.  I also meditate using the Chakra method when I feel like I've had a rough day.

It really is tough.. I'm forced to speak with them as I'm a speech therapist and they work in the special education classroom, so it's hard to escape. I guess the best thing would be to avoid avoid much as possible and talk to administration.

I feel the same way I work with nothing but women too and they are giving me a hard time because I'm pregnant an I can't do as much as I use to because the bosses don't want anything bad to happen it just upsets me most of them have had children so they know how it feels but don't seem to care and I try to talk about it with my boyfriend an he is like just ignore them but it's not that easy

Working with woman ***** so bad, Im sorry....I also work with drama filled woman who literally have nothing better to do. Ignore them. I try not to speak or look at them and honestly I have never felt better. Hope you find a way to ignore their petty crap! :) lol

Write it all out in a journal,  catch an extra hour or two of sleep, keep a yummy treat in your bag and escape to the bathroom to indulge when things get crazy. High school never seems to end ;)
