Tomorrow is my first day back. Anxiety is running high. I have had some personal family drama that kept me up till 2:30 ish this morning, which has made it difficult to get into the right mindset for tomorrow.
Crisis is a part of life. We all face it, and if we want to be effective and successful with what we do we have to deal with the crises that come our way. But what if the stress and anxiety build to the point you just cannot get your game on, you remain ineffective or slide into depression? If you find yourself in this situation, go see a doctor. Most likely your GP can help you out.
Second, find someone to talk to. do not slide into depression and then wallow in it alone. That is simply a recipe for disaster. It is also good to make a list of everything that is causing you stress, and then number them based on which is worse with number one being the worst. this lets you see a visual representation of those challenges in your life that you are facing. Take a good look at the list and draw a line through anything that you cannot do anything about. You are going to have to let those go.
Finally go through the things that are left on the list that you can deal with and categorise them: Home, School, Health.....etc. Keep those problems in their own area. Don't let school problems into your home and keep home problems out of school. this makes them easier to deal with. You won't be trying to take care of something where/when it won't make any difference.
i know these things work. I do them myself. My GP has helped me with my stress. I use the system I just described, and I have friends who are willing to let me unload when I need to. My hope is that you will find this information helpful on your journey to becoming all you can become.
