Yes: Sounds like you have a lot going on. Stress can affect your menstrual cycle. Try to seek professional help in managing your stress. A good therapist or psychiatrist can help you manage it. Stress can take a toll on your health in many ways.

Not abnormal!: Stress can cause a lot of symptoms and in your situation can be hard to manage. Try to make some time for yourself to destress, wether it's through exercise, meditation or whatever works for you. If you have continued variability in your periods make time to see your gynecologist.
