Dear J:

You are suffering and I am so sorry to read that you are. Your stomach problems are very distressing- I know these kind of problems. On the other thread I suggested you consider quitting your job. Just because you had trouble with the teaching job (which is very stressful for many) and you hate this job with the manager you are having, does not mean there is something wrong with you. There still are jobs out there that will not be stressful for you!

Working in a very low key, low stress environment will be right for you.

Will a hot bath help, real hot? A fast walk of half an hour, at the least. Any relaxing activity such as listening to relaxing music…?

Got to find a way to relax, take deep breaths.

let’s discuss your job and the idea of quitting it on the other thread and here, the relaxation techniques…?
