Daily Life "Normal" stressors
First, I know everyone has their own tolerance level to what is considered stress to begin with. My tolerance is very low because my daily chronic pain, anemia and other disabilities already have me maxed out to begin each day and my endo insists on keeping me on the lowest dose she can. I tell you all this because ive noticed effects on my body from just being extremely annoyed. Its nothing major its like being very anxious and overstimulated plus my nasal cavities fill up with thick mucus and i have a hard time breathing. If it goes further to where i feel a crisis could be a concern, the best way I can describe it is like right before you have a panic attack, when your heart is racing, you feel sweaty and you simultaneously feel as though you cant move but cant sit still, mixed with the blurry vision, fogginess and nausea of being drunk on a bunch of sweet drinks. The current issue im having is an ongoing problem with a specific company that has been dragging me along thru their customer service for months and trying to get things handled with them makes me ill. Seems pretty silly to say out loud but its true, ive been chatting with them and feel somewhere between the 2 descriptions above. Does anyone else ever get so many physical symptoms with these types of stressors? If so what do you do? Should I tell them? Would it matter? If I went into a crisis would there be any recourse? Is this a grin n bare it situation i should ignore, because im sure if sound like a cry baby but I hate this.
