What is the most stress you have ever had in one week?

Question

just wondering...because my week has been awful!!!

Answer 1

Son told us his 14 year girlfriend was pregnant the day after my husband was diagnosed with diabetes 2 days after my hours were cut in half at work the day after I found out my husband hadn't paid real estate taxes in 3 years and we were about to lose the house and the dog bit the neighbor girl who was trying to break into our house.

Answer 2

None . I dont stress. Stressing over things doesnt fix anything and only makes you older faster. When I start to feel that my day or what ever is going bad I just remember that there are people who really are having a bad day like the ones that are in the hospital all tore up after being in an accident. Makes any bad day that i could be having look like heaven.

Answer 3

My transfer at work was approved before we got approval for our new home loan (we were transferring out of state), just weeks before the house was supposed to get turned over to us. We already sold our previous home so we could try to get into the new one (we had tons of bills that were due, with no money to pay them - that's why we sold our home). So, basically we were homeless, living out of a trailer with four kids under ten years old, with my job transferring me to a new state, and technically no home to move my family to. My job then put me "on call" 24-7 for a week, the week before we were supposed to move (it's a periodic requirement for my job), and I was handling constant issues with our mortgage company (faxing documents, emails, answering questions, etc while not having a private place to do it all. Remember, we were living in a trailer using cell phones... No computer!!!) while I was at work, dealing with the movers without being certain of where they'd be delivering our stuff, all while using my cell phone. That week really sucked...

There really is truth to the saying "What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger". After my week, I realize I can handle more than I thought. It really makes the easier times seem just that... easier. Hang in there and good luck!

Answer 4

Having a temp job that paid well, but I had to miss because I thought I had an inner ear infection. I tried to go to work after missing 3 days, but I couldn't take it. I went to the emergency room the next day, and I found out that I was having a stroke! THAT was a bad week. I am fine now by the way :)

Answer 5

Well, I was 7 months pregnant when my husband and I moved across the country. We drove a penske truck and hauled our car behind it... first there was the stress of loading it, and getting everything packed when he was working 12 hours a day, and I wasn't able to lift anything. Then, we blew out a tire in the middle of Nebraska and had to wait for hours to figure out a solution (it was the middle of august). Then, when we finally got to our new city (after 3 days of driving in the hot hot summer, very pregnant and unable to recline in the cab of the moving van!) the apartment we had arranged to live in turned out to not only be a compelte dump, but was in a VERY unsavory neighborhood. There were drug deals going down on the front steps, the works. It was hot, humid, and we were stuck there, clueless in a totally new and foreign city with no family. Then, we fanagled with the owner of the building, and fought to get out of the lease... and did so by paying a penalty. (By the way, we had NO money... we spent our savings moving, because my husband was starting Medical school) Then, we had to rent another truck, reload it, and move to a new apartment. After that, things got much better :) but we did have to wait like a month for our student loan checks to come, so we had no money for a whole month, and were unable to get any baby things because our baby savings was spent getting out of the ghetto apartment. (Yay for nice parents who helped us out!)

Answer 7

My relationship with the man that I thought was the love of my life ended; two days later had a huge fight with my brother where family witnessed my brother, in an out of control state place his hands on my throat in anger and life me out of a chair, the worst part was they BLAMED ME instead of him for the out of control behavior, which left me feeling amazingly betrayed; and two days after that working with my first patient of the day in the hospital, the patient threw a pulmonary embolism and died in 10 minutes right in front of my eyes. I was numb for weeks!!
