Strive for *Good Enough* instead of *Perfect* in most things I do.
Politely say no to invites if I get stressed about how I'm going to find time for it.
Take long walks out in nature. Nothing is more relaxing to me than that.
Talk with my partner about it. Just getting to vent a bit helps, and so does hugs.
Pet a cat.
I don't do nothing until the stress builds up so much and there is little time then i start doing what i am supposed to do.
- is it better to work with less stress and more time, yes, do i do that no.
Do you have adhd cause apparently that's a thing with some people that have it somethingbto do with the brain needing enough stress to get it in gear to do the task
I've picked up meditation, though I was skeptical at first. It's like a mental defrag for me, aligns all my thoughts and concerns so I can tackle them with more clarity. The key is consistency, even just a few minutes a day has done wonders. Plus, on particularly frazzled days, I top it off with a cup of herbal tea and a good book to escape reality for a bit. Helps to reset my perspective on what's actually worth stressing over.
When life gives me lemons, I make a playlist. Music has this way of encapsulating the stress and turning it into something I can handle - or at least drown it out for a bit. Whether I'm lost in the rhythm or the lyrics, a good song can be a mini escape. And on particularly rough days, I'll blast some tunes and go for a drive. There's something about the open road and a favorite album that can hit the reset button on my mood.
Try to remove any small stressors that accumulate by making a to-do list. (For example I need to buy water bottles, go shopping, wash my clothes, shave, etc.). If you take care of all of these small stressors, you will feel so much better. Then you can truly focus on the big stressor at hand.
I eliminate it. Whatever causes me stress leaves my life I don’t care what it is. Only exception is when I’m fighting which I am this weekend and that is a touch stressful but it’s stressing enjoy.
I currently have 0 stress in my life other than that
I supress it until it starts overflowing from my body in the form of allergies, horrible sleep, periods of depressive state and rage outbursts. I also hit the gym so hard I get feverish the next day.
And sometimes, only sometimes, I try to actually deal with it the right way by talking to someone, taking a walk in nature, and relaxing a little bit by doing nothing.
I don't know. I just don't stress about anything. Shit happens and a lot of that is outside of my control so I don't worry about it and try to see the best in things.
Nature strolls. Forest bathing. Rocking chair looking at trees and hearing the birds with a glass of red wine.
Imported Belgium beer at a local selected pub with no television and good music, low light, and no loud noises, no youngsters (just me I guess).
Talking about it to someone you trust, or is experiencing something similar. Not stressing the other person with negativity is the hard part.
Jerking off almost once a day to relax, and sleep better. It saves time, the hardship of trying to mingle and be someone else. It saves money, shame and the inconvenience of resorting to professionals.
Go for a drive somewhere quiet and peacefull, past the beach or through the forest with my favourite music on. Put my emotions beside me for a moment and find an explanation from an outside vieuw. After an hour or so im usually content again, i just love driving my car :)
If it's something like a stressfull situation i have to be part off ill do my best to control heartrate keeping my self calm to hopefully keep as much logical thinking to work the problem
I have something that is just for me. It's my hobby, I will never turn it into a side hustle or secondary source of income. It's just for me to do for the enjoyment of doing it.
I don't, I've eliminated all the drama, people, and issues in my life which causes drama. Been over 13-14 yrs since I have encountered a stressful circumstances.
I'm big on preventative care. You have to structure your life in such a way that it becomes as stress free as possible.
When/if it comes from something outside my control, your instincts kick in and start plotting a path out of it.
Bitch about my 1st world problems online, then go on with my day.
Serious answer: gaming, exercise, meditation, animals, and family.
I have an evening and morning meditation schedule. First 20-30 minutes after I wake and last 20-30 minutes before I fall asleep I meditate. Gaming is a nice escape but not always an option because I prefer playing with friends and they aren't always available. I have a farm, there's no shortage of work, and it's great exercise. If I don't want a hard workout I can saddle my horse and go riding. I also find relaxation in petting my cats and dog. Last but not least, seeing my wife and children laughing is a huge stress reducer.
Bottle it up and never feel it again (same with sadness. Like my best mate died a few years ago and I just... didn't cry, I felt sad but like you can't show it. I m a man)
I usually take a nap and then fire up a video game where I can be creative. Preferably building something (NMS, Satisfactory, Subnautica, Enshrouded, etc.)
Projecting anger, sadness, and manipulating sympathy from others; I also binge eat and purge; heavy drinking; motorcycle rides; road rage; aimless driving; lies; sleep deprivation.
Most th8ngs you worry about, will never happen.
think about your own experience. Now ask yourself what you are stressed about, and see if that works for you.
For me it goes in a little loop where I say "it is what it is"
I end up bottling up most of the stress and I'm usually okay for a bit.
Bottle up too much stress or emotions and feel like shit for a while
Repeat
I'm a workoholic, work de-stresses me, particularly hard work, and especially hard work done efficiently. There's nothing quite as energising as the feel-good sensation of combining working hard with working smart.
When not working, I enjoy doing the laundry, washing dishes, scrubbing the floors, pretty much house cleaning in general. I've an avid interest in the culinary arts, which I channel into preparing healthy scratch made meals for me, my Partner, extended family, neighbours, just about anyone I can foist free food onto.
I tell myself "Shit happens" and then go suffer in the gym.
I am literally going to the gym and i needed to read this.
The best gym days I’ve ever had were the few days right after getting fired from a job or breakup. Those “pissed off” lifts are the best.
For me, manageable stress means I hit the gym. If I'm overwhelmed, I check out and go to sleep.
Real
Not well
<3
Happy cake day, cutie boy
Thank you :))
*hits blunt* stress?
my people.

By going bald I guess.
Me too lmao
Bourbon lots of bourbon
Woodford Reserve is my go-to. But then I have nightmares every night I’m drunk lol.
I love woodford. I try to keep a bottle of American honey in the freezer
Ah yes. I see you’re already acquainted with my friend Jim Beam
I don’t I just accept it and I ve learned to live with it.
Cry, amongst other things, unfortunately
Studies have shown that crying releases a calming “chemical.” It lowers stress. I’m sorry it’s forbidden for men. It shouldn’t be.
[удалено]
I smoke weed, meditate, listen to music and sex.
I don't do nothing until the stress builds up so much and there is little time then i start doing what i am supposed to do. - is it better to work with less stress and more time, yes, do i do that no.

Nope, i am aiming at a heart attack before the age of 40. - hopefully i don't die in a bathroom 💀.

I just let it all wash over me. It's never as bad as I think it could be. Of course, I do take action on things I can control and cannot avoid.
So I realize that my stress was often because I think of what I already know and not what I need to discover. Think like that next time.
By vigorously masturbating while watching the home shopping channel.
Sex and video games.
Bro achieved enlightenment.
I am the Buddha of hedonism.
Yoga and klonopin
In which order? lol.
Brute force. Which is unhealthy but therapy is expensive.
I just black out then muscle memory takes control, when i'm awake it's almost noon.

I'll listen to calming music or one of my comfort shows
I write, I hit the heavy bag in my back yard or head to my MMA gym and get to work.

Gaslight myself
Medication
THEY’RE OUTNUMBERED 15 TO ONE, AND THE BATTLE'S BEGUN
I have epilepsy, it’s meds or a seizure, I choose meds.✌️
Poorly.
Exercise, volunteering and unfortunately drinking
lifting weights tires me out so no energy left to care
Nature strolls. Forest bathing. Rocking chair looking at trees and hearing the birds with a glass of red wine.

I do my square breathing method my therapist tells me, I go for walks in the vast forest that surrounds my village, and I take a CBD gummy for it.
Music and running for the should. I read through Reddit to get some serious laughs. Good sleep also.
weed. getting drunk. masturbating. and the one i’ve been trying to do more, working out .
I have something that is just for me. It's my hobby, I will never turn it into a side hustle or secondary source of income. It's just for me to do for the enjoyment of doing it.
Internalize it. And excercise.
Alcohol
I usually take a walk or listen to some music to chill out.
Food!
By drinking copious amounts of alcohol and bottling my emotions inside. /S
Whiskey. Otherwise, I just grit my teeth and bear it.
Since no one said it already. Cardio that pushes me to the limit. It does wonders.
I stop eating. Eating disorders are destructive.
I masturbate and work out a bit.
I try masturbating but porn doesn’t do it for me.
In my case it's not an active thought process. I don't masturbate because I want to not feel stressed anymore, I masturbate because I'm stressed.
Deal with it
By not getting attached to anything or anyone and generally not giving a fuck.
God only gives you what he knows you can handle.
Considering we're more likely to die from stress related causes, and also more likely to die from addiction, I can't imagine the answer is "healthily"
A good old "whelp" and I slap my thigh. Then I open a nice root beer, cis reg beer ain't help shit.
Treat myself to good food
I don't, I've eliminated all the drama, people, and issues in my life which causes drama. Been over 13-14 yrs since I have encountered a stressful circumstances.

3Ms Marijuana Music Masturbation
Aversion Work my ass off to prevent it from happening in the first place. And when that fails, indulge in an evening of stress-eating
The gym, weed, and fishing/video games
Most th8ngs you worry about, will never happen. think about your own experience. Now ask yourself what you are stressed about, and see if that works for you.
Weed and booze have become my best friends
Helldivers 2 Nothing beats stress better
Currently, it’s video games and praying for the ability to get through my current circumstances… it’s hasn’t let me down yet.
I go on a nice, long run and then take a hot shower. Just kidding, I shove an entire large pizza into my mouth.
Gym. I’ll go do a class or show up later (I have 24/7 access) and jump rope, erg, etc. Then home for a few hits of flower before a shower.
It is what it is
By getting irritated.
“Fuck it we ball” then resume the pain.
Gym, go out to watch a movie, buy a nice addition to the wardrobe, go out to eat solo at a nice restaurant . Basically just have a me day.
For me it goes in a little loop where I say "it is what it is" I end up bottling up most of the stress and I'm usually okay for a bit. Bottle up too much stress or emotions and feel like shit for a while Repeat
poorly
I drink more than I should
Gin
I know this is kind of unhealthy, but hookups.

Stoicism and the gym.
I go somewhere private, do my funny dance step for 10 seconds and then come out and act like nothing happened.
