Thats an incorrect statement!! Selling gives the impression that you are getting something in return.

Stress is easy to deal with. Try dealing with never ending depression. Sometimes I wish I could just cease to exist, but I know thats not what I really want. If push comes to shove find some Xanax, it does wonders. Opiates are also wonderful, but its not a habit you want to get into thats for sure.
You idiot. Why the hell are you giving advice about drugs?

Because I fucking feel like it.

God I'm stressed lately. I don't feel stressed in the throbbing veins at the temple high blood pressure sene, but I'm not sleeping well - a couple of hours a night at most - and what little sleep I get is filled with weird dreams. I'm also drinking far too much lately. Another clear sign that I'm stressed. If it wasn't for the sleepless nights, I probably wouldn't be drinking at all, but I'm in the unhappy situation where I need to be as sharp as possible for 18 hours a day, and 6 hours of alcohol assisted sleep is better than two hours of nonsense sleep. And yet more stress. This level of alcohol intake can't be good for me, certainly it isn't good for my now generally grumpy disposition. I went to see saw-bones the other day who recommended a life-style change, but singularly refused to prescribe anything even remotely useful. Marvellous. I'm glad I pay for this extra-special private health care. The demands keep coming. The problems keep surfacing. I think if I survive the next three weeks - when the cause of this stress is finally put (successfully, hopefully) to rest - I shall take a very long holiday. Perhaps Mauritius. Or maybe Hawaii.

Like others have said, exercise helps out alot, and alcohol not so much. The doctor that prescribed my CPAP machine said that it takes a few months for your body to straighten it's sleep patterns out after heavy drinking. Make sure you are getting enough Zinc and magnesium before bed. I take a vitamin formulated specifically for sleep, and I fall asleep easier with it and wake up more refreshed in the morning. I don't expect you to take my advice, I probably wouldn't, but it has worked wonders for me. That's just the physical symptoms, you need to deal with whatever is causing the stress as well, and that is usually much harder.

Take care, Martin. Such an intense phase is ok if you are working towards a goal - however, you need to figure out when will it stop and how do I make it not happen again.
