It just seems everything that could go wrong is doing right now and here feels like the safest place to just get it down so it's not rushing about in my head.
After a tough few weeks with numerous exams, I knew asking for my health to hold out was going to be asking a lot but I know the stress has triggered off a mini-flare which, while manageable, is a bit of an annoyance when I still have exams. Okay, a bit is an understatement.

Not been getting on with my parents recently either. Don't know whether its been the pain or the stress that has left my tolerance low but I've been snapping at every little thing which is obviously not going to do anything for relationships under this roof.

Then last night a huge concrete slab was thrown through our front room window. Luckily the only injuries were a bruise when I dived to the floor thinking it was gun shot (it was a lot louder than i'd have imagined a smashed window to be) and a pricked finger in the clean up but it could have been so much worse had my little brother still been sat on the couch under the window :( so that's shaken me all up as well and made the stomach play up a bit more which I didn't need. It's just horrible not to feel safe even in your own home...

Turns out there's not as much... Just feels in my head. Feels better to see its not as much though. Not sure of the point of this, except to just get it out of my system
 
Vickie, sorry to hear you are going through a rough spell, I can imagine that going through all your exams and stuff will be very stressful so it's no surprise that you are starting to have problems health wise, and no doubt the build up of stress is what will make you snappy aswell. My only advice would be try not to worry to much about exams and things. easier said than done, but just keep calm and try your best. Worrying will do you no good at all.

as for having a concrete slab going through your window!... well wow.. just wow.. Just glad that no one got seriously hurt but again thats something that wont make you feel very comfortable at home!

It's always good to vent and we are all here to support you and chat with you about anything! Hope you are feeling better soon.
