Stress Problems
Posted: 12-20-04 00:42am

Ok.....Well
i know i've been under a lot of stress lately and I feel my body freaking out on me. I'm 15 and this is my first year of high school. I'm always shakey, esp. When I go to certain classes. I'm gaining weight and get headaches a lot now. Having heartburn, my leg joints have been sore, and my menstrual cycle has been irregular. I get small chest pains too.

There's just so much stress. My mind races on negitive things when in public or in a social setting. I think it's called social phobia or social anxiety diosrder. I thoguht it was getting better cause this is the first year i've ever had friends or a boyfriend, but it's taken a bad turn lately. All the negitive thoughts causes me to be depressed and I want to cry a lot and that just causes more stress. More comes from my parents. My parents think i'm the "smart one" compaired to my brothers and they put so much pressure on me. I have to do everything perfect. I've gotten a lot of stress with one of my classes. I've never had a c in my life and I got one this year. I'm doing the best I can, but my mom thinks i'm being lazy. I'm just really tired. I'm not an open person, so I haven't told anyone. -but now it's gotten really bad and I feel like i'm going to explode. I would tell someone, but what would I say?
And do you think the way my body is acting is caused by the stress or could something else be wrong?
