Stress From Work Is Causing Problems
Posted: 12-05-07 12:29pm

My partner told me last night that he is suffering with his spelling at work, he cannot write words correctly, puts spaces inbetween letters where he shouldnt and often forgets to finish a word. He is under alot of stress at work and is working 12 hours a day as a project manager for a construction company. He is underpaid and overworked. We have had alot of money problems too. He said he sometimes has palpitations as well and i must admit i have noticed he has started stuttering before starting a sentence.
My partner has never had these problems before this job, he has always dealt with stress very well, but i am really worried about him. He has no motivation to do anything outside work and has trouble sleeping, sometimes he is unresponsive during sex too. How can i help make his life easier? Do these symptoms sound like stress or something else???? i cannot find anything about it on the internet. Hope someone can help me!

i know how he feels. i have a high stress job too. and i am dealing with bipolar 1. i have always dealt with stress fine also but the older i get the harder it gets.. or so it seems.

he is working too much for his stress tolerance i think. not everybody is suited for what he is doing. i know i'm not but i have to keep going to work. no choice right now. my husband does everything for me because i'm so exhausted when we get home from work. he is getting stressed out too because of me. i resent the stigma associated with stress and mental health. i hope both of you can find some relief.
