These are common symptoms and usually only last until the situation causing them, lasts. However if they are not addressed and are left for a prolonged length of time, or recur frequently then they can make other symptoms more difficult to manage.
Identify the causes of your stress, anxiety or difficult emotions, (health, environment, caring situation, finance, etc.) and problem solve to find solutions or ask for solutions from others.
If you feel you are unable to cope with your emotions please consult your doctor for further help and advice.
