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.
