Had some emotional trauma 10 years ago. Life back to normal
However, I now seem to have a diminished capability to physically manage mild stress.
I find that even mild work stress creates dizziness and periodic high blood pressure. This can persist for days after the work stress is gone
I think that my body/brain subconscious stress management system now jumps into high gear with little provocation.
Mentally, I don't freak out, its just seems my body disagrees with my conscious self and sets off a false alarm.
I'm not interested in medication, just looking for suggestions on strategies to diffuse the physical manifestations of stress.
Stress kills and I don't want my adrenal glands to end up giving me a hear attack or stroke.
Quitting my job is not reasonable, because every job has some level of stress.
Scotch and hookers is also not a great suggestion
Medical marijuana might make work interesting, but I think my perma-smile might raise a few eyebrows!
