I’m so stressed out. I’ve decided I should keep it to myself in my real life. It’s not easy! Holding it in makes me feel a little depressed along with the stress feelings.

It has to do with my husband taking a new job and buying a new house in a new city. My stress is multifold. Partly, I think we might be buying just before prices are going to drop, and it’s mixed with some disappointment and anger at his choice to take the job, while trying to seem happy and supportive for him.

I’ve noticed that some people seem to handle stress better than others, but I also know some people who seem to be gliding through, but in an opportune moment, admit to how difficult changes in their life have been.

I have a friend who doesn’t tell anyone what she is going through, rather she tells about it when pretty much everything is done. That seems like a really good technique. She seems so control.
