Stress....Help? My health is being effected by it.?!
Question: Stress....Help? My health is being effected by it.?
I'm a young girl in high school, trying to get by with good grades ( 90 and above ), friends, and everyday life. I'm very stressed out. I know it. Sometimes it gets so bad that I feel like puking, or I feel like passing out. My doctor told me that I needed to relax.
( no I don't have high-blood pressure )
I don't know how to balance Everything.
Good Grades.
Volleyball
Friends
Relationships
Chores- My brother is "Too young" ( BULL HES 11 ) To do work, cause god forbid him lifting a finger, So I have to do my chores and his.
Family
Appearance ( it takes me half an hour to straighten my hair, curly hair hates me. )
Supper. I make supper some times because my mom is going back to school.
Self Confidence. I have none. NONE.
Emotions. Life sucks. Can't take it anymore
The list goes on and on.
I'm in two advanced classes and those are hard enough as it is.
I can't take it anymore!?!?!?!?!?!
Is there anyway I could just relax. I know you guys are gonna tell me. "Don't do something, quit volleyball" uhh, "Find time for yourself"
I barely have time to think, or even take a shower. No less trying to keep up with everything.
What do I do?!?!!

To be honest with you, you sounded just like me in high school. The way i got through it is kinda stupid. I set up a time chart basically. I made a list of everything i needed to do, down to taking a shower and hanging out with friends and family. As stupid as this sounds it worked for me. give that a try and hopefully it helps. just take an hour and make a list and times for everything, even when to go to bed.
Oh my. I'm not in high school but I will try to help you. First, talk to your family, they will help! Drop an activity. Then I would tell your lazy as- brother to get his butt off the couch and start helping. Or you could drop and advanced class if its to much work. Hope I helped, I'm only a 6th grader!
combine some of your activities? make supper while showering; straighten your hair while playing volleyball, etc.
but seriously, i care, and there is a solution but you told us in your post that it isn't an option so i got nothin'.
