A sore throat, a swollen node, any new condition or just dealing with an uncertain future. I missed the days of worrying about little inconsequential things.
For me, I had seen people who talked out all of their problems with others. That method of relief wasn't in line with my personality. If I had a concern I told no one until after I had been to the doctor and gotten results back. I didn't want to concern anyone. Probably not the best approach. I kept myself busy with work and tired with exercise.
I was just curious how everybody managed the stress and anxiety.
