Stress

So I have heard stress can kill but I didn't realize it can also make you just feel icky. I am always under stress so why would this time be any different. I went to the doctor today to discuss these horrible headaches I have been getting and she told me the cause is tension headaches. Also migraines and then told me the likely cause is stress. I quit smoking cigarette's and am coming up on a week without one and I told my doctor that. Do you think she was proud nope not that she then tells me oh cold turkey maybe you should get on the patch it will help with quitting. Ummm hello cold turkey almost a week ago why would I decide to go on the patch now. I don't even have a desire to smoke. Besides my happy pills are supposed to help with quitting smoking as well so why the sudden need for the patch. She then tells me well you would not be so sick if you took the patch and did not quit cold turkey. Go figure your body needs to wean off of the bad. I thought I did that by slowly quitting and then just going cold turkey but obviously that is not the way quitting smoking works. What a vicious cycle. So now I am on a pain patch for my tension and soon to be on a muscle relaxer. Yippee. Thank goodness it is not a dopey muscle relaxer because if it were I may cry. I cant be any dopier then I already am as of late. So tomorrow I go back to school and I feel good about that for so many reasons. One major reason being that my house is clean. well it is cleaner then it was a week ago when I had to start taking off of school for family needs and then for my own needs. I am hoping I can catch up with all that is going on in school and that this wonderful sickness did not hinder anything. OK off to do my nightly routine because of course at 9:17 at night when I should be sleeping my day is not done.
