How do I cope with this stress?

On Saturday, my father will have been dead for one year. My life has been terrible ever since he died. I started doing terribly in my classes. My husband cheated on me and we got a divorce. I've been having bad relationships. My mother fell down the stairs. And now, I'm moving back to my hometown. I'm going to miss my friends, which, at the moment, seem like the only people who can help me. I don't know how to even begin coping with what's going on. How can I deal with it?How do I cope with this stress?
Leanna, You have brought tears and bad memories back to me. Life will get better, it just takes time, and sometimes a lot of time.Find a few minutes each day for quite and solitude. Share your thoughts, feelings %26amp; fears with God, even in the toughest times.Stay in touch with your friends.Write your feelings on paper, then keep them. Later, you will see how things have changed.Do you blog? I hear it is a good way to vent. You might consider talking to a counselor, until you feel up to coping better on you own.Remember this, 'When God Closes A Door, He Opens A Window'. This is a time to love yourself as no one else will. You are in my prayers.How do I cope with this stress?
my dad passes away 15 years ago , and i miss him so much . it's very hard ,and I'm so sorry you are going through that pain . time was the help that heal me . i had talked to one of my elder brother that i hardly see , and he helped me alot emotionally and spirtially too . talk to some of you or family too , cause sometimes we can have questions and feel lost without an answer , you know what i mean ? and like i said '; TIME'; helped me realize that life goes on and my dad was not suffering no more . hang in there , a lot of things can happen down our paths , but we just get up and try again , and always pray for thanks daily .
I'm so sorry to hear all this. Right now your in a dark place, but you'll come out sooner or later. I would go see a doctor about getting some happy pills. So many bad things have happened all at once. It's easy to feel so depressed. You may need some medical help to get you along for awhile.
For something this severe, you should seek medical attention. Perhaps going to a psychiatrist would help you get over this rough patch in your life. It really helps to have a neutral person listen to you as you let some of your feelings go.
I think you should go to the gym. That will make you feel better and healthier. Your body will also look better and that really helps with your self esteem. The exercises will catch your attention and you will have less time to think about your problems. Give it a try!
Every town has a church group or hospital that holds meetings for grieving a loved ones passing..Just call your church or nearby hospital for meetings scheduled...





I am deeply sympathetic for your situation...It will get better...time heals all wounds...
Leanna-Whew you've been through alot. Big hug to you. I guess I'd say please try to find support. Don't isolate, even though you may want to. And if you are a praying person this is a good time to find comfort in prayer. Protect yoursel from people who are negative or who want to tell you to just get over it.
just remember god will only give you as much as he knows you can handle... it is like the old saying when it rains it pours... just please keep your head up ... i suffered a debilitating neck injury last year which sent me into an emotional and financial tail spin... it was my faith and my close friends that kept me sane...i wish you good luck and many blessings
you have to learn to accept the guilt that is genuine...and learn meditation
What you need hun, is a support group, people to help you get through these terrible times in your life. when you move back into your hometown look for a local support group on the issues you're dealing with. I wish you best!
if you are not close to God, then you should give God a chance to save you from all your pain and sorrow. Jesus Christ will hear you and help you through this , if you only let him in your life. Pray to him in your own time and talk to him as a best friend...he will hear you and deliver. I promise...open your heart, soul, and most important beleive in him.
talk to a shrink, or if you're religious talk to your priest.
I would suggest grief counselling. You need to have someone to talk to and if you are going to lose your network of friends then you need to find a decent alternative. It sounds like you are linking all the negative events in your life and blaming yourself for them, they are not your fault. It may be helpful to take each one as a separate issue and deal with it in turn rather than focus on them as a whole. Good luck and try to stay positive x
