Stress will make you sick

Oct 14, 2007 06:29AM - 2 comments

I've spent the past several days battling a cold that has turned ugly.  I haven't had much time for self care with everything else that is
going on.  I guess that's what happens when you are physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted.
Getting this house ready to sell has been overwhelming.  Add into the mix, separation, lonliness, anger, frustration and a whole
host of other feelings on top of that & you have the sure recipe for some stressful risks.
My ex is asking for an awful lot & he has charges to deal with; my youngest daughter is trying to cope with the fact that her own
father sexually assaulted her;  my son has to go to court next week on minor drug charges & driving without a license; my oldest
daughter is having a tumour removed from her thyroid on Nov 1st; I am having financial difficulties...you name it.
When God gives me challenges...their almost always big ones.  I guess we hardly notice the little ones because a reasonable
amount of stress is always acceptable and a normal part of daily living.  I don't know how much more of this I can take.
I am working really hard a trying to stay positive, but it just keeps piling up.  I need a vacation...ha ha...like that is going to
happen.  I can't even afford a few days off work right now.  What'll I do?  Praying is not giving me any answers.  I've tried putting
it in God's hands...that doesn't seem to be helping a lot.  I am angry that I have to handle everything while my husband just
goes out and enjoys himself - already dating.  Boy...that's how they hurt you...first financially, then flaunting a new young thing in your
face!  I know it is said "what goes around, comes around", but both my ex-husbands have done way better than I have.  
The first one re-marrying as soon as the divorce was final & living the good life with a new wife & no responsibilities.  The second
already setting himself up with someone new.  I hope the judge throws the book at him!  I know I'd like to.
It is hard to deal with this anger, but I work at it every single day!
