They claim to be making 'courtesy calls', rather than sales calls.

I had a guy from Southern Electric who was making all sorts of promises. I told him, 'I'll sign the forms, but I'm going to check out your claims this afternoon, and if they're false then I'll cancel the contract tonight'. He assured me - he gave me his word - so I signed. I checked his claims.

He claimed I'd save an Absolute minimum of £150 per year. In fact, it would have been closer to £1:70 for the first year.

He claimed that the prices were frozen until November 2006. A lie.

Southern were nothing to do with Scottish and Southern, whom I knew to be a bad lot. A lie.

Another company making my life easier by guaranteeing that I'll never consider deal with them. The list grows once more.

In contrast to Southern and the dreaded British Gas, NPower seem like pretty decent sorts so far...

I'm super stressed. But then again i always feel stressed.

Hip Priest 07.18.2006 12:59 PM

Anything in particular?

screamingskull 07.18.2006 01:00 PM

i get panic attacks quite alot and i tend to get anxious untill i get sick alot too. theres not very much i can do about that though.

Do you take medication for it?I did when i was younger but it was like being on smack.I stopped and felt better.A lot of the time a walk or just not being in crowded places helps.

i get it all the time, regardless of where i am/who is around. i just get so anxious about something then i get totally overwhelmed and have to crawl up in a ball and breathe!!!
when i am not on medication for my bad back i will go to the doctors and hopefully start taking something for it.

Trasher02 07.18.2006 01:15 PM

Courtney Love stuff....

Coincidence? I think not!

I wouldn't take medication for it.Panic attacks are more something that you self-teach yourself to keep at bay.

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
So so don't let them inside, don't let them know
Don't give yourself ohh away
But now my friends are acting strange
They shake their heads man they say I've changed well
Well something's lost rearranged
From living every every every I've
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
I'ts just illusions I recall
I really don't know i really don't know
I really don't know i really don't know
I really don't i really don't clouds at all
Why are we here...terrified terrified wow


that song rocks!

definately, my mum is very very health conscious!!! i eat salad everyday and drink 3 litres of water a day too, i drink orange juice and take my vitamins and dont ever really drink fizzy drinks.
i really very healthy.

Savage Clone 07.18.2006 02:25 PM

I am feeling less stressed due to my recent layoff; I have less money for sure, but the extra time I have feels very good. Lots of biking. A few weeks ago my stomach was in knots most of the time, though.

Inhuman 07.18.2006 02:58 PM

uughhhh. Last night I had 2 shots of sambuka, a 40 of colt45, some coors light, and smoked a datura/weed joint. Invited the girl I like over and we made out for 1 1/2 hours. Went to work hallucinating tornadoes and my consciousness kept flciking on and off. Felt terrible. Now she's not talking about last night at all. On top of this, I still have a prostate disease and the doctor's sending me to a specialist, and I've waited a full week and there hasn't been a day set. In addition, the only solution I can do now to relieve symptons is a drainage, which involves rubbing an area inside the ass, and I don't feel like buying lube. Now I have to clean the entire house of beer cans for tomorrow so my parents won't find out about the party

All I can say is, "Gross" and, "That really sucks."

Your first child? because this is where stress REALLY starts. You'll soon be worrying about the most irrational things to an irrational extent. The lack of sleep won't help. And just so I don't leave this on a negative note, children are the most joyous thing and the happiness they bring is well worth all the stress.

I voted 'no' because I've really not got anything to complain about: a fantastic partner, a gorgeous daughter, another child on the way, a job I enjoy... I could go on, but it's sickening.

qprogeny79 07.18.2006 05:25 PM

nope, not a goddam thing could stress me out until the end of august when classes start again. got a 97th percentile lsat; working two jobs which take up maybe, MAYBE a total of 10 hours a week -- and that's on hectic weeks; and going to charlottesville over the weekend just for the hell of it. so, stressed? no. bored out of my skull? that's a different story entirely.

nomadicfollower 07.18.2006 05:31 PM

I'm 15 so I have no worries (and I shouldn't).

Hip Priest 07.18.2006 05:34 PM

Quite right.

krastian 07.18.2006 06:13 PM

Well sure.

Yes, first born..I'm liking the name ''Chosen One''...kidding obviously..but yeah I can't imagine the upcoming worries, so I take each day as it is, try to realize the big picture and not be overly anxious about the times to come. this year has just been extraordinarly sour if you folks understand the expression...Oh and pookie thanks for the pep-talk...

avoiding caffeine helps
running 15 minutes each day helps
swimming a bit makes me feel really relax and highly reduces anxiety

cigarettes have no effect if you do them or not
weed has no effect if you do it or not
alcohol has no effect

_slavo_ 07.19.2006 04:49 AM

...and oh yeah, I'm feeling great today

Sport really helps. Especially if you are sitting behind a computer the whole day.
Our bodies need to release tension and excercising is the best way to do it.
If I'm feeling stressed, I normally go for a jog or swim.
I love the feeling of taking a hot shower after sporting in the evening and then going to sleep in a relaxed mood.
Oh yeah, avoiding caffeine does help.
I'm feeling great today.

Hip Priest 07.19.2006 08:22 AM

58.54% of the people on this board are stressed, with another 14.63% clearly expecting to be at some point soon. This is a worry.

sonicl 07.19.2006 08:25 AM

Please, Hip, don't let the board's stress levels worry you.

Hip Priest 07.19.2006 08:26 AM

I'm trying to remain calm. I'd go outside for some fresh air, but I fear I'd melt. Then I would be stressed.
