I've decided that too much stress and pain in my neck and arm is what's keeping me up all night. I did sleep last night, but here it is past 2am and I'm still up and thinking how I have to work by 9am. So, instead of going to bed I'll just watch a movie and take a shower. Got to sleep sometime, right?

t have issues regarding workplace or environmental related..cud u pliz suggest any remedial exercises and other tips to keep eyes healthy so that i shall feel good..your feedback will be highly appreciated..

I try. I get out chunks, and then it stops. There is no productivity. My produtive spurts are getting shorter all the time. It isn't depression, I'm not feeling depressed and my thoughts are racing, racing, always going and I am drowning in them. Movies, I can still watch them. A game, I can still play a game. But read? I can read my manga a little, a page or two at a time. An article as long as it is broken into small pieces. Some days I can read, other days no.

I'm 37 year old male with normal BMI.I have been having on and off digestion issues from 2007, i was having burping,bloating after having fatty /oily or protein meals.Endoscopy diagnoses was gastrits in 2008, then i had omperzole for 2 years, around 2011 i started getting mild pain on right side rib, the ultrasound diagnosis was no gallstones , but hida showed my gallbladder is working 0%,i started getting dizziness , spacy feeling from there on till now.

I have to work jobs to to pay for the flat and support my kid. My side job is great and my colleagues (many of whom I went to Uni withnare great) are the best. But my main job is a nightmare. I’ve been there seven years and the work itself is fine but my superior is a bully who likes to stomp on those below him. I find it extremely stressful to watch him pick on others and want to tell him to stop but fear losing my job. Would you speak up and tell him to stop it or clam up and keep working?

I truly dont mean to come off this way and dont see how I am coming off in this manner. I would love to correct the issues and make them feel more comfortable with me. Today I am going to have a meeting with one of the main team members that just doesnt like my approach and feels this way to see if I can figure out a better approach. Still I would love any advice or any information on how I maybe coming off as Condesending.

Today, my back and feet have been really bad from the previous day of work and we had a couple cashiers in training who aren't allowed to be left alone. Well my manager comes up to me and tells me I need to get up and stock product after speaking with a lead who had informed him of the situation but he said it looks "bad". I know if I say anything to him I will get the short end of the stick for the rest of my pregnancy because I've seen him be vindictive before.

I just found out that I lost my work today because I cannot stay well in a workplace that has clorox, paint, polyurethane, bacteria, with NO return air. I am in a very specialized field--I teach newly arrived refugees from Burma, Africa, etc. tospeak English. It may be too late, but is there any kind of mask I could get and still teach--I guess, however, that it would have to cover nose, mouth and eyes--maybe I coul wear it half the time. I need/love the work.

Can a person have elevated ammonia in bloodstream from an environmental exposure? And what would the symptoms be?

I work at an australian hospital as a wardsperson/cleaner. I was mopping the floors of the ward and to be honest can't remember If I mopped any blood up or not. There was none obvious anyway. As I was ringing the mop out some water splashed up and I think I may have gotten a very small amount of the water in my eye. assuming someone on the ward was HIV positive, am I at any risks?

I started a new Job in October and ever since then I have had difficulty breathing and some days I lose my voice almost totally. I have been in and out of the Dr and now using Symbicort and taking prednisone. It is wierd this only happens during the week while I am at work. Weekends seen to be fine after a little time away. Is this Asthma or am I alergice to my workplace? Should I test the air quality?

I had to give up my rank and move to my original jail where i had a lot of friends in mananagement and staff and now I am leading a normal life again. I feel that I was let down by management and me peers in the previous jail.

My fear is that with all the stress, my gall bladder issues, the MS, and who knows what all else, that I will end up getting sick/having a flare/abducted by aliens, and I won't be able to contribute effectively. I would like to make sure my new manager knows what she's getting into, but I don't want to risk my job. And then there's the issue of letting my new employer know that I have MS.

In addition, the law enforcement source said investigators have a greater focus on whether the shooting occurred after a workplace issue with religion. Authorities also haven't ruled out what President Barack Obama called "mixed motives," meaning that Islamic radicalism and workplace grievances both could have driven the attack.

Hi PeacelsAlllWant, how are you? Can you give some details of the nature of job you are doing? Usually the stress and strain to the body does cause a bit of muscle soreness at the end of a hard day out. The events at the workplace if bothering might also make you mentally stressed. When you are not working probably you might be following a set sleep cycle, which might make you sleep better. It is better to keep yourself physically active whether at work or not and follow a healthy sleep habits.

change your life style completely. have lots of vegetables, fruits and low fat protein food. avoid non-veg and oil foods to reduce stress on the liver. Have fibroscan or liver biopsy to know complete liver health or to detect early liver decease. From how long are carrying this virus?

Hi guys, I am in my 19th week and I had my 2nd level scan, it says the placenta is posteriorly located and is in upper segment. The maturity grade of placenta is 1. Can someone explain this to me! Is everything normal?

I was looking in a small box for something and poked my thumb, then my index finger on a thumbtack in that small box. Both bled. Is there any HIV risk there? For example if another person did the same thing just before me and bled? Any risk or need for testing or prophylactics? The box had post its and the like it it with several tacks just lying there.

s face it, stress is in the workplace in our schools in our private lives and in our world. It is state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or very demanding circumstances. However, stress and the effects of stress is a subject that has not been thoroughly studied. Even so, prescription drugs are readily available for illnesses that are the product of a stressful environment.

m wondering if anyone has heard anything specific about TX and artificial joints and the like? I have a total hip replacement and I know there is always an infection risk with these things, even at the dentist office. For teeth cleaning you are supposed to take a dose of antibiotic an hour before they work on your teeth but this is only for the first 12 moths after the implant is put in. Mine has been in six years and is very well "set" so the risk is lower.

So here I am day 8 no norco and feeling great and then I come into work and am pulled into office for days I missed last week. I want so bad to slap these idiotic people beside their heads!!! But I just signed the dang paper and let it go. I will NOT allow these morons to be a trigger for me I guarantee u I will quit and be with my kids all day before that happens!! People amaze me!

I have been experiencing anixety and stress and also wonder if that has anything to do with it. I hope God blesses us with another beautiful healthy child but and I have heard after 35 it becomes harder but was wondering if there was any personal experiences and advice I could get. Thanks ladies.

I know exactly how you feel and I react exactly the same to work stress. My only answer for myself is that I've decided to quit my job and look for something less high profile. I think we have to be aware of our 'stress vulnerability' with Bipolar, it really is a very big trigger, possibly the biggest trigger of all to mood episodes. As ILAD says I think we have to learn what coping skills work for each of us. Work stress drove me to drinking badly, and made my BP even worse.
