And now eye surgery stress?

Yes, February is turning into a stressful month. Now it's outpatient eye surgery Thursday Feb. 11th.

After falling on the ice last week and tearing a hamstring that put me in a walker for a few days and has me on a cane now.

While going up for tenure with 5 years of tenure documents due to my boss on Feb. 17th.

PTSD + 3 kinds of stress = February 2016 for me so far.

Umm. PTSD symptoms now abound. Dunno what else to say.

Support welcome.

Dear Muji,
I am still new here and so hesitate to give suggestions. If you have a tried and true way to try and relax/distract yourself......give it a try.

I am there with you with all my BS stressors going too.

Muji, Support and Hugs that the eye surgery goes well, but the domino effect of stressors and triggers this month deserve Extreme Self Care...we are with you! More Hugs of Comfort and Healing

It's nice to think ahead to March, when this winter and all its miseries will be behind us, when the fresh new growth begins to flourish - ah, spring! It will come without fail! And all this will be behind you.

sending you some prayers that life gets boring, calm and peaceful for awhile...you have had enough this month

Good luck with the eye surgery. I have had 3 eye surgeries on my eyes and all turned out okay, scary though our sight is very valuable. take care

On the support side: best of luck, Muji !!

On the practical side: cataract surgery is among the safest, most effective, widely performed surgery in the country. They have this one down cold.

Enjoy the new vision !! You'll find out ... your apartment isn't as clean as you thought it was ;-)

    Upon his departure, he remarked, "I am in many people’s pockets; no one will believe you." Have you ever grappled with the silence that follows sexual assault, where the perceived impossibility of being believed necessitates self-censorship?
