thank you soo much! i have been reading some of these posts and the guys get torn apart for being frustrated. this is the exact reason i posted this! your advice of taking notes is great, i'll be sure to use it. she has been displaying symptoms since she was 15 and she is now 26, when she first found out she felt it was like saying i told you so, there is something wrong with me.
i do try to help her exercise w/ taking walks or going for swims, and it does seem to help but then she gets drained. i have found an odd way to vent stress but it's one that has worked for me for years, video games. i can plug in a good action fill rpg like a resident evil, splinter cell, or metal gear solid game and just lose myself in it for a bit. i don't recomend just shooter games though. if you notice the games that are most effective, while being shooting games also require you to think, solve puzzles, and even compleate missions that take real concentration. this gets my mind off my problem, giving me a chance to step back, take a deep breath, and just get things in perspective, when i am in a mood like that though i have to be careful bc i can lose all track of time, i find if i set an alarm, on my watch or phone for example and limit myself to no more then 1 1/2 hours at a time it works best. i hope this can help other guys and i welcome and request any other HELPFUL suggestions that are out there. if you just want to yell at me please just keep it to yourself bc i am here for help and the occosional vent/rant just like everyone else.
again thak you very much momoftwins for you support and understanding, people like you are the reason i joined the site after reading it for almost a month.
