These are words that could describe me.
I get stressed out a lot. Many different daily scenarios. School run, fitting everything in, things that go wrong at work, housew
I'm always rushing around. I don't sit still for long, I only have one DD but I work far away from home with a long commute. I feel I have so much to do.
I was stressed out today about something at work that seemed a big deal at the time. I rang my boss who was WFH but he was driving. I probably shouldn't have called but it felt like the right thing to do at the time. I realise I reacted too quickly and in the wrong way. The issue was solved without my bosses input.
I always feel embarrassed afterwards about how I must sound.
I feel people see me as a harassed hysterical woman. Been described as hysterical (which I hate) by members of my own family. My mum friends say I always seem stressed.
My AIBU is AIBU to ask for solutions from anyone similar? How do i 'calm down'?
I'm 38 years old and have never really gotten the hang of being a calm and measured person.
I'm looking to change jobs to take some of the stress away which will help.
But how can I be more calm?
