Stress

Why can't I seem to handle stress? Specifically financial stress. I feel like a heavy weight come over my body and it makes me feel like I'm drowning. The feeling is so heavy I hardly feel like I can continue breathing. But why? So what if we are in debt? What if we are late on a payment? What if we spend all our money before payday? We aren't going to die. We aren't going to be out on the streets. Everything is just fine.  I need to remind myself these things. It's going to be ok.
