Wow, there are so many stressful times to choose from. I guess, most recently, it would have to be going through the disability process with my wife. We were losing everything and I was working as hard as I could to keep us afloat. She was extremely depressed, going to Drs and in pain all the time. We made it through with a lot of faith and prayer and we are stioll together. The key is to turn toward each other when times get stressful, not away from each other.

I think my most stressful time of my life is actually right now. I just graduated from high school last year. and cant drive cant go to college cause of not driving and my family seems to have soo much hate towards me. so i'm dealing with it by not listening to my family anymore and im assocaiating with people that really care about me. I still do get really stressed but i try not to cause i know i'll end up having a hearattack lol

The most stressful time of my life was when my older brother died in 1977, it was hard to deal with. Then in 1996, my mother died, that was even more stressful, then a year later in 1997, my younger brother died. I'm still a bit stressed, but I know they all are in a better place now & all together, I love them so much & miss them dearly! I got over the stress by going into therapy, & getting help.

I think right now is my most stressful time.
My mom is currently living with me and in the process of getting her moved out back on her own now that she has a good full time job.. Getting myself moved in with my boy friend and being 16 weeks pregnant..
I still have not told my mother and I have been trying for a few weeks now but she has been really sick with the flu and last night I was going to just tell her and we ended up getting into a fight cuz she was upset that i was not there to take her to the hospital and I did not think she needed to go cuz the dr said to wait till today and i agreed with the dr.. So she started to yell and I picked a fight with the ironing board and i kicked it really hard I thought I broke my foot..
I am working on getting out of the stress. I need to cuz its not healthy for me or the baby and I start seeing a counselor this Fri to talk about everything along with how to vent my anger.. I really scared my poor 5 year old lab.. I felt really bad about that..
Any way.. Good ? and thank you for letting me vent..

From 2001 to 2005. I had four family members die within 18months, as well as one friend. My 10 year marriage ended and I suffered burnout. I moved house three times and had four new jobs. My parent marriage ended. There was September 11 and a new relationship which saw my partner deported back to his country of origin. There was 18months of fighting with immigration to keep him here. I was on sickness benefits as I developed severe depression. I had a nervous breakdown in mid 2004 due to chronic and acute stress. I developed an anxiety disorder. But here I am into my second year of uni studying to be a psychologist and exceling at it, free of depression for the first time in 17 years. Free of any suicidal and self-mutilative desires and have more strength to face life than I have ever had. For the first time ever ( I had an abusive horrible childhood) I enjoy living. All thanks to my psychiatrist and counsellor who have spent the last five years helping me to rebuild my life. It can be done but it wasnt done with grace or style. It was real messy, painful and tiring. But it was all worth it. Praise God!!

Right now! But I process before I act and in doing so, I avoid rash decisions and adverse consequences.
