Anxiety and Stress

I am 32 weeks pregnant and lately I have been having issues with anxiety. I never really had these feelings or concerns before even in a previous pregnancy. I feel like my heart is racing at times when I get overwhelmed. I am a supervisor in a call center and am stressed out quite often with the fact that I only have 6 weeks left of work and so much to do and no one realizing it. Its just frustrating. I just wanted to see how many others have this same issue and possibly what you do to relieve the stress and anxious feelings.

Thank you,
Shannon

My name is Shannon also. :) anyway I've had anxiety so far my entire pregnancy. I'm almost 32 wks. I have a hard time leaving the house to do something simple like go to the store. So I just stay home LOL. Stress on the other hand..I had that when working. I quit my job 3 weeks ago because of it. They weren't listening to my needs and wants so I decided it'd be best to leave so I can focus on being healthy.

I have anxiety all the time .... Even when I wasn't preggo. I just try to stay as calm as possible, breathing exercises help a little, I haven't really found anything to help much. Ive been waitin on a appointment for stress management since the first tri but still nothing.
