Losing my mind.

I am stressed out.

I just feel like there is too much going on at once. I have a ton of papers to grade. I have my ST, who does a good job but still needs a lot of input from me. I have classes to teach. I have parents to respond to. I have to right up a special ed assessment for a student. Peanut hurt her ankle, so I'm keeping an eye on that. The house is a disastrous mess. My school is an administrative mess right now, and things just keep getting piled one thing on another. I messed up my bcp- thought I missed one so I took two and then realized I took one from the wrong row (do you think it matters?).

And those are just the things that need to get done. What about the things I want to do? I need a manicure. I haven't been to yoga in over a year. I have like three knitting projects started, and two are gifts so I really want to finish them. I want to read Shut.ter Island. I want to soak up the sun before the cold and rain comes back. I want to plan my flower garden. I want to focus on my upcoming cycle.

I don't know what to do. I already take prozac. I already get acupuncture. I've even tried wine.

I just feel completely wound up ad out of control. I don't know what to do about it. I don't even think taking a "mental health day" would help- I still have to plan sub plans for being out (another thing added to the list) and I feel like I'm leaving ST in the lurch.

What can I do???? Help! Suggestions are totally welcome!!!!!!!! I need some help. :(

I don't have an advice but I am so sorry you feel like this. I feel similarly on a regular basis - what you wrote described me so well - and it's so hard to get under control. For me it comes and goes. For a few days I'll feel out of control and crazy and then I feel normal and more calm for a few days. I do not take any medication like prozac but I do yoga once a week.

Does it come and go for you too?
