I have fought long and hard against my problems with stress. From one bad relationship to another, and now as a single mother I have had to learn when to walk away.

I think of all things that I have learned for managing my stress is when to walk away and let the issue lie. Sometimes it's harder than others, but I think I am learning how to do it.

Very true! I may call that surrendering to the situation. We have to realize that things do not always go according to our way and we must develop the wisdom to call it quits when required. It can ease a lot of built of pressure.

I agree with you 100 per cent, CoolNCalm.

I have found that most times I was stressing out over something I would never have been able to control or doesn't really matter.

Yes, too many times things are just beyond our control. There is no benefit to our health or stress levels to continue, and worse you could risk your relationship in continuing.

But how many people can actually let go? I think we'd all do better if we learned to.

well, most of the stress i see now-a-days have some root in a failure in life or not reaching the expected state. i don't know, may be many a times we just want things more than what we deserve or maybe it's just ill luck.

broken relationships are real pains !

they'll keep you hurting for the rest of your life.

cheers,

I'm not sure that is the case. The majority of my stress comes from trying to meet deadlines and get things done on time. There is no failure, no wanting something I shouldn't have-just stress at meeting strict deadlines.

Otherwise I have big issues with my ex yes, and the things that he does to us. This is not a failing on my part other than choosing to make a baby with a total loser, but still I have to deal with it and that causes great stress.

Hello,
Did you try to get into easier jobs? Maybe the loads you are taking at present are too heavy for you. Of course it's good to have big dreams and aspiration. But all these wishes and dreams are required only to keep us happy and satisfied.

Even if you achieve success but not yet satisfied, all these success is of no use.

Try to love whatever you have done or achieved.

Cheers.
