Ball of Confusion (that's what the world is today) [by the Temptations] comes to mind today.
I have a knot in the pit of my stomach that is growing and make me sick.
Stress - the physical pressure, pull, or other force exerted on one thing by another; strain.
Stress is a term that refers to the sum of the physical, mental, and emotional strains or tensions on a person. Feelings of stress in humans result from interactions between persons and their environment that are perceived as straining or exceeding their adaptive capacities and threatening their well-being. The element of perception indicates that human stress responses reflect differences in personality as well as differences in physical strength or health.

My laundry list that effects my current state of mind: (should you care to read on...)
I am on the outs with my Mom with all the stuff happening with my brother, I feel unimportant.
I moved to San Antonio for a new start and a great job and all I think I have gotten is an ulcer.
I have bills and rent and no income and to make matters worse, both roommates are moving out (one of which because of me - he can't deal with a female roommate), so no pressure Jodi but you need to get your butt in gear.
I want a relationship soooo bad!!!!! I looked to the wrong person to have something stable to keep me from feeling dizzy in the midst of my ciaos and now I feel like I have lost my self worth entirely. It's like I see it. I know it was there but I am just watching it drift away and I am helpless to get it back... [sigh]
sigh.
