Avatar n tn you constantly and touching you constantly (like if you have one nursing) it can be very hard as you just get a bit overstimulated with all the touch. They talked about this in our birth class for once we became nursing moms. I know when I struggle with arousal stress is the cause. If I take time to get my life in order and then relax a little it can help a TON. Does that sounds like it might be part of the problem for you or not? Any idea what else might be causing stress in your life?

Avatar n tn m sure with your experience, there are a lot of areas that you could work in. Is there a school of nursing in your area (at a college perhaps) where you could talk with the head of the department? Maybe they could direct you to a more satisfying, thus, less stressful area of nursing. I highly suggest finding a good therapist. I see a social worker. Check in your hospital, or ask you family doctor for some names of good therapists.

For anybody trained in meds management, assignment of your type of symptoms to "stress" without a battery of verification tests, should be considered gross malpractice, in my personal opinion.
572651 tn?1530999357 The authors speculate about why the benefits of the stress management treatment did not last beyond the 24-week treatment period. One possibility they point out is that participants may require longer treatment to learn to maintain the stress-reducing behaviors on their own.
