Tension is high

Navigating emotions when you're stressed and tense is hard.

I take cortisone replacement steroid because I had both my adrenal glands removed. I do have a tiny but that was left behind and over the years it has shown it can cope with quite a lot of stress.

We all have our ways of coping with stress.

I just realised I forgot to take my tablet this morning.

Done it now!

I realised because this morning I have been doing part of my job, that is helping the staff of our school through these difficult times, helping keep others in the loop, trying to balance need and emotion. And I felt my arms tingle. That is a sign that my cortisol levels are low.

And it's stress. The stress hormone.
