I was diagnosed with This about 2 years ago. some things you may not have been told is to try to avoid caffeine and antihistamines, as they can exacerbate the problem. apparently sleep apnoea can also bring this on, so maybe look into these as well as the stress.

as for stress, its hard. I can go months at a time without any issue, and then have something (usually work related) set me off. trying some mindfulness exercises, breathing exercises and other relaxation techniques have helped, but I find after a stressful workday I just try to do some dead thinking, you know the kind where someone asks what you are thinking about and you can't answer cos it was nothing. tv could be on, could be listening to music, could be nothing.
