Life Changes As A Major Source of Stress

 

I was savoring the moment and was missing everyone as if though I had moved on with my life in another Continent. Eventually my family wished me luck for the future and I was on my way to my husband's relative's house to meet them individually and perform a post wedding ceremony. After the ceremony we were on our honeymoon. Soon the honeymoon came to an end and we were back in London and the reality was very hard to grasp. My husband was back in Vancouver, Canada. I was to uproot and follow him a month later. I was busy finishing my unfinished projects at work before I resigned. I was physically and mentally drained by the ordeal of moving to another Continent and away from my family. As the departure date came closer I had severe migraines, neck aches and general body aches from being exhausted as I had a lot of finish before the big move. I was unable to function as I did before due to the constant headaches and earaches. I went to my doctor's and I was referred to a physical therapist for the pain management. Eventually I was unable to even walk for few yards as I lost my sense of balance and co-ordination i.e. vertigo, which is excess of fluid built up in the Eustachian tube of the inner ear, which make one to loose their balance. My doctor had ordered me to total bed rest for few days and not to worry too much about moving abroad. The thoughts of bed rest made me even more frustrated as I was not able spend my last few days in London with my friends and family because I had to rest and pack my things. Everyday I would say to myself that I would get better once I am in Vancouver and get my life in order. I did my best to get my things together and I was on my way to Vancouver. I was so anxious to be with my husband, that I didn't feel any pain in my body. I was in Vancouver, new country, new environment and five thousand miles away from my family. I was busy getting my life together in Vancouver that I ignored the pain and pretended that everything was under control.
