Hi there,
Thanks for writing to us,
Try to deviate yourself by concentrating on other thinks , like playing, watching your favorite movie etc,.
Don’t be alone always. try to spend time with your friends and families, it helps you to relieve stress .
as your stress disorder is associated with your work ,it is advisable to change your work if possible.
Get an psychiatrist advice and change out the dose as per your condition.
Take care.
