Stress can creep up. One month, you’re handling everything okay, then suddenly you become this easily irritated person who is always tired, and your body feels wrong in ways that cannot be explained.
Most people just sit on it for far too long. They think it’ll go away, or everyone feels like this, or going to see a doctor because of stress is way over the top.
But stress isn’t only in your head; it also comes out in the body and ignoring it doesn’t make it go away.
What Stress Actually Does
When you’re stressed for weeks or months, your body reacts.
These symptoms can be common:
- Constant headaches
- Not being able to sleep or staying asleep
- A lot of fatigue even after rest
- Muscle tension especially in your neck and shoulders
- Colds or infections
- Stomach problems or appetite changes
- Feeling on edge
If most of these sound familiar, your stress has reached a level that needs to be addressed.
Why Turn to Grace Health Clinic & Urgent Care
Your physical health is directly impacted by stress. High cortisol, poor sleep, and weakened immunity; these are not abstract concepts.
They are real, measurable problems that a healthcare provider can actually help with.
The approach is simple at Grace Health Clinic & Urgent Care. We find out what is going on physically and mentally, then develop a plan in context with your particular situation.
What We Check
When you come in, we’ll look at:
- Any underlying health issues that could be contributing to the way you feel like thyroid function, vitamin levels, and chronic conditions
- How stress has affected your sleep, energy or the ability to function day-to-day
- Current support available
- Whether medication or other interventions are needed
Sometimes, the issue is partly a medical deficiency or imbalance. Sometimes it’s purely situational. Either way, you get clarity.
Treatment Options
Based on what we find, your plan might include:
- Behavioral health services with their mental health team
- Medication when appropriate
- IV therapy for physical depletion or immune support
