Stress does make my pn worse.

I try to find ways to destress as much as possible. For me, that is to accept that everything does not have to be perfect. For a perfectionist...that is like spitting in the wind, but I am trying. Tonights party is way toned down...I didn't get all the decorations I wanted, it is not "perfect" and that is ok...so I am telling myself, lol. I have begun to focus on people around me and making them my focus and not the little things that I try to make perfect all the time. It helps destress. Like right now...I am resting my feet after setting up things...the old me...would never be sitting here resting..I would fuss until the moment guests arrive for that perfection. Nope. Now its about making sure my feet are ok when the people I love get here and less about decorations.

I'm sorry it is so stressful for you. I hope you can find ways to destress these times so they are good memories instead of bad ones.

Happy New Year!
