Signs You May Be Stressed

It is obvious when you're walloped all at once by anxiety. Some symptoms of ongoing stress are so subtle, you may not even make the connection.  Learn to spot these early warning signs so you can calm yourself and become more productive all the same time.

JAW PAIN
If you wake up sore from the neck up, you could be grinding your teeth in your sleep.  Facial muscles tense up when stressed, which can lead to spasms while you're asleep, causing teeth to clench.

TUMMY TROUBLES
When under stress, people may swallow air, leading to abdominal discomfort.  If you are stressed an X-ray will show more gas bubbles in the stomach.

A LAGGING LIBIDO
Find that you're not in the  mood night after night?  A low libido may be a clue that you're mentally and physically drained.

CANKER SORES
Stress may spark flare-ups of these small ulcers in or around your lip.  They're irritated by spicy, salty, and acidic foods.  Relax a little and you can order Mexican again.
