High levels of stress and anxiety...
So, I've always been a very high strung stressed out kinda person, which probably contributed to my aneurysm... I've never been one to turn to medication for solutions but as of late I feel that its getting out of control.. With work and home live and health issues my stress and anxiety issues have been taking a huge toll on my mental and physical health and I'm worried It may cause another aneurysm or stroke. Its beginning to affect every aspect of my life. I'm pretty much alone in this struggle with this, because when I try to talk to family and friends about it they tend not to understand. I'm to the point where I feel its time to turn to medication, for the sake of my health. If things continue at this rate I'm afraid I'll have another aneurysm before I'm 40.
Anyone dealing with anything remotely similar? Any advice?
