The story of my life lately it seems.

I am way stressed out right now. So many things going on that my head is spinning. I have been a garbage dump this weekend; shoving candy and any other food that happens to be in my way in my mouth. I have no self-control, self-discipline or common sense right now (as it pertains to food).

I have final exams this week and a whole lot of added stress on top of the exams. I feel like I am two steps away from having a nervous breakdown.

Have you ever had a time in your life where you were so stressed out you didn’t think you could take one more thing or you would totally break? ‘cuz that’s exactly how I feel right now.

I remember the first time I started losing hair in gobs. My eyes bugged out of my head and I wondered if it was normal. What looked like a lot of hair wasn’t as much as I thought but still. It was enough to convince me that I was growing bald.

I spoke with my mom about hair loss and a possible hair loss treatment. She was very helpful and said that she lost a lot of hair when she was under a tremendous amount of stress. She said it would come out in clumps in the shower.

Once my hormones subsided and the stress subsided so did the hair loss. What happens to you when you get stressed out?

What do you use for sleep aids? I am looking at getting something to help me sleep.

Because of the house stuff, I have been under a tremendous amount of stress. I find that I can’t really sleep at night anymore. My thoughts wake me up. Once I am up, I can’t stop thinking no matter what I do.

I have thought about taking a warm bath and drinking a warm glass of milk, but i’m not sure if that would help? Any advice?
