What are the symptoms of being stressed?!
Question:
What are the symptoms of being stressed?
I'm known to be a happy person, and I dont want to believe that I am stressed but some say I may be.
When I put my hair in a ponytail alot of my hair falls out.
I want to sleep all the time.
I want to eat, then go back to sleep.
I sit there and cry.
I cant focus at work.
I dont feel like going to work.
Right now I am having some financial problems and I'm doing everything that I can do to get out of it but I feel like I'm falling and sometimes I just want to give up.
I am a mother of 4..... please any suggestions will help.
Also, do you recommend I go to the doctors?

Answers:
Sweetie, it sounds like you have symptoms of stress that have developed into depression. If it isn't that, then it could be a thyroid problem or any number of health problems. Your symptoms sound exactly like the symptoms I had when diagnosed with depression. I went to the doctor, and they gave me a medication and I went to counseling for a year, and I feel fine now, and no longer have to take the medication.
I do suggest you see your doctor, he will need to run tests for physical problems.
If it is depression, and you need counseling - don't worry - they have counselors that will see you, based on your financial situation - discuss your financial problems with your doctor - he will need to know you are having financial problems.
I hope things start turning around for you soon, getting to the doctor and getting help with the stress and depression will be a big step in starting that transformation. Good Luck!
