Once I got cancer of the tongue and throat, I realised that stress is a killer and I had to try and get stress out of my life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I used to get stressed out, but my cancer has put everything into perspective.
I had every stress-related illness you can get.
I was going through some stressful stuff, and I lost feeling in my face and in my tongue. So I went to a doctor. He said he didn't think I had MS or a brain tumor. He said, 'I think you're just stressed out.'
I get stressed out really easily.
I always have stress.
When you're under stress, your immune system doesn't work as well.
Remember that stress doesn't come from what's going on in your life. It comes from your thoughts about what's going on in your life.
Stress exacerbates any problem, whether it's diabetes, heart trouble, MS, or whatever.
I think of stress as the creator of cancer and heart attacks, like a tiny little ball you feed. I believe that one of the reasons I've never got ill is that I'm not stressed.
For most of my life, I have eaten to deal with stress.
