Prolonged stress can have a negative impact on your physical and mental health. It is important to take everything one day at a time and to give yourself grace.
While the pace of life only seems to get faster by the day, make sure to prioritize yourself and set aside time to do things that make you happy and well, and do not be scared to ask for help when you are struggling.
