Stress

[Corleone]

How do you deal with stress?

What relieves stress for you?

Share ideas and help one another.



I try to deal with stress in a manner that I can overcome anything, I can get through it, and I will do it. Life is not a perfect road, you will have bumps along the way, but you have to keep going even if it ruffs up the tires a bit.



Calming down, never focus on what you don't have and look at what you do have.

- Hot baths help

- Relaxing, watching a movie

- Stop worrying and do anything that occupies your time

- Surrender, what is out of your control is nothing that should concern you.

- Overall, find joy in life, never be overwhelmed or stressed out if you tried and will keep trying, even with bumps in the road, drive over them, go another way, stay focused, learn to deal with stress.

Spending time with my daughter gets rid of my stress. She is so happy and cheerful and full of life. Its hard for anyone to be sad or stressed around that.

Gardening or cleaning--something solitary (because people usually bring on my stress) It gives me a feeling of accomplishment and gives me an outlet for my frustrations.

I turn to music. It's saved me so many times, I can honestly say that sometimes I want to die but then I put on some Pink Floyd and everything seems a little bit sadder but a little bit more realistic. It's never the end of the world, I'm only 14 after all. Even zombies would be an amazing addition to my life.

I have several methods to help when I am stressed:



Relaxing on the couch with some soothing music.

A fresh cup of coffee

Reading

Working in the garden

Talking with my wife

Console gaming

Hot shower

Nap/good sleep

Than can be the cause of stress for some people.

Once again, music.



A good hard song is all I need, plus a good drive around the block, or on the highway so you can speed a bit more. Although I don't encourage ANYONE to drive with their emotions. It's dangerous.

Talking with my best friend. He is a great sounding board. Helps me get 'it' off my chest everytime.
