I can't take it anymore

Im in a job which i hate. I go home and i am constantly bitched at. Well no, not constantly. But my sister is always in a proper mood and takes it out on me. I haven't spoken her to her in 2 weeks and il be quite happy not to ever speak to her again, to be honest. What's the point, i have enough of my own problems to deal with than to put up with other people's moods.
I worked all day today in a job which i hate and i just wanted to go home but i arranged with my brother to pick him up. I went 40 minutes out of my way getting stuck in traffic only to get a call from him 2 seconds away from the place i was meant to pick him up, saying he already had a lift home. He couldn't even send me a message. I didn't need that, 40 minutes out of my way and 40 minutes back again, stuck in roadworks and traffic.

I dont want other peoples problems on top of it and a quick message would be nice to let me know i didn't have to make that drive. I hate driving as it is.

I have been highly stressed out to. I have been getting theses rashes also which might be psoriasis and i have been losing my leg hair also, which never bothered me but i now have a bald patch in my eyebrow. Psoriasis and alopecia can be caused by stress, which i really dont need. I dont want to end up as a bald, flaky freak.

Is it me they are all against, why???

It's not just you. Maybe you need to take a step back and find some perspective? If you're as stressed as you say you may not be looking at things as rationally as you usually would - I know stress makes me irrational anyway.

If you're worried about hairloss and skin issues, go to a doctor. They'll be in the best place to advise you where that's concerned. By the way, if you've dramatically changed your diet recently that could be a contributing factor in the appearance of bald patches.

Lots of people out there hate their jobs, but unfortunately employment is hard to come by these days. I'm not going to say "At least you have a job" because that platitude irritates me no end. Work will get easier if you look on it as a means to an end, and keep an eye out for something else. It won't be easy to find something else at the moment, but things will come around again. Convince yourself that it's a temporary situation and it will make it easier to put up with things you find hard to cope with at the moment.

It sounds like there are lot of people pulling your strings at the minute, which is leaving you worse for wear. There is a two letter word that we are afraid to use because we may feel it might hurt others feelings but if it's delivered with the right tone, and intention it can leave both sides feeling ok about things. -(no)- as in no thanks.- We're so busy looking after everyone else that we neglect the one important person who needs us the most.

psoriasis can indeed be caused be stress. I know I got it during my last year in college. However its not something to worry about. Its treatable and will go away once you treat it and deal with your stress. If I was you I would take a sick day and go to the doctor.

First let them look at your condition and then explain to them the stress you are under. Although going by your post you don't actually seem to have a lot of stress in your life. I know people have different tolerance levels, but from what you described it would be a mild annoyance to me rather than actual stress.

You have a job you don't like. Ok well I would say that there are a lot of people in jobs they don't like. Read the news a bit and you will be a lot happier going into that job every day.

Your sister is in a bad mood, well that can be dealt with by not dealing with her when she is like that. I'm not saying cut her out of your life but if you can't deal with her moaning then walk away from it, and then talk to her after she has moaned at someone else.

What your brother done was bad, but come on if you think about it it caused you nothing more than a bit of inconvenience.

I think you need to go to a doctor for your condition.

I then think you need to look at yourself. You can't change how other people act, but you can change how you react. Learn to deal with stress, find an outlet for it, and concentrate on the good things in life.

i agree with tipptipp, take a day off or if your able to take a week off and go away somewhere. Loads of cheap hol breaks and the min. Also id have a word with your mum about your sister, there is obviously something seriously bothering her if she is constantly in a mood like that. Is she knows its getting you down as well she'll most likely stop.

As for the Psoriasis and alopeci your best going to your doctor. No one here can confirm thats what you have or prescribe something for it.
