I just take it out on my Wii Game(golf or Bowling) or just take it all in stride. Life is a treasure and you only live once.

Gun range. I'm not a gun nut, but man...taking the pistols and shooting some rounds is relaxing. It is hard to explain, but trust me. It is relaxing.

Also, I also write to relieve my stress.

flowerforyou I dont really get stressed.
I laugh at most things

If i get upset i tend to giggle, and if i get really upset i will giggle a bit more and probably have tears at the same time.
But really laughing through everything keeps me pretty stress free.
I like everything happy and if its not i keep smiling and working at it until it is happy again. If I cant make things right I ignore them and hope it works out, but dont stress, maybe feel hurt but I keep smiling till it goes away.
hmm I guess laughing at life keeps me smiling.flowerforyou
lolllllllllllll i see but you laugh when you blush too haha i know that too :banana: :tongue: flowerforyou hugsssssssss hun hope you had a good day cheerswaving flowers :thumbsup:

Like say you lost your job , or had a Rotten day at work , or everything you planned went wrong ,or you in dept and so frustrated cause people keep calling and bugging you, or your car broke down,or you lost your keys,or have health problems that the doctors drive you crazy with different tests and still can't find the right answers and so on ...... How would you deal with it ? do you take it out on others but don't mean too? or do you hold it in? well if i ever get into stressful situation i use to lift weights or go for a walk or drink a few beers and feed the ducks and birds ,cause life is to short and not good to worry i know it can be really hard for some ,but never hold your stress in let it out punch a bag or pillow lift weights talk to a friend or go for a walk and always remember there is a new day ahead that can be bright as sunshine and think positive and never ever give up hope but please try not to take it out on others cause your day was bad its not their fault unless your boss that fired you lollllll kidding :)my self i think positive about life well i try to and take 1 day at a time and say maybe tomorrow will be better :)cheers waving :banana: :thumbsup:



my two belated cents: personally I use tapping(ETF) and Tony Robbins lessons - and of course here are always my best supporters my dog with cat!bigsmile

When you lost a job - you have new opportunity ever. Just start to do what you always wanted to do. Without "maybe tomorrow", do NOW, right away!

You have some experience, you are kind of expert in given category or even an authority, so you can simply to write an ebook or a book, become a couch etc and so forth - here any limit is only YOU.

Life has it's ups and downs, happy moments and sad moments.
For myself, I put on my headphones, listen to music and start cleaning something that has been put to the side, if that doesn't work, then it's time for a good work out. Sometime just writing my thoughts on paper helps until I feel better. :)
i heard about that people right things on paper if they stressed out to me i think it would stress me more writing it down but i like the good workout thing ,as for cleaning when stressed not for me i rather go out and chat to a friend or relax at a beach something like thatflowerforyou waving :thumbsup:

First - get a job - any job to get some money coming in. Second,
work out daily, weights, swimming, biking, jogging, steps, spin
etc. Eat especially healthy. Anything to work off some of the stress
and foster a positive attitude. If I am already working out daily
then I increase the intensity.

If there is an external cause for the stress I take immediate steps
to address the issue. Change in work, change in relationship, change
whatever is producing the most negative stress. I will lean hard on
my close friends and family if I need to. I know they want me to just
as I would want them to lean on me - for advice and emotional support.

Usually it is possible to substantially reduce the stress in the
space of a few days and it really feels good to know that the situation
is being addressed.

After a few weeks it is hopefully ancient history. Then it gets dumped
in the mental garbage can and permanently erased from memory.

That reminds me. It is time for my daily morning workout!


Great advise here you got my friend sounds a bit like i would do in a lot of ways work things out after you calm down and if you need help ask if you don't try and look to better days and work out cheers waving :banana: :thumbsup:

Don't let the stress get to you in the first place and then you do not have to think of ways to relieve it, but that is just me...
well sometimes you can't avoid stress you can deal with it but not avoid say you lost a loved 1 you would be stressed right? and hurt ,so you got a load of money out of the bank and was going to buy something and lost it you would stress to look for it maybe you do it in a different matter but if you can't find it after hours it may get to you ,say a doctor says you have cancer but they not sure ,you may get stressed right? so theres tons and tons of stressful things that come up and hard to avoid say you were out and with your mom and someone pushed her down took her purse at the moment you stressed and mad to get the guy right? say you in a airplane engines start to fail would you feel stressed? theres on n on but i know what you mean try and make life less stressful if you can cheers :banana: waving :thumbsup:

Turn on some uplifting music and take a break from whatever the stressful situation is. Focus your mind on positive things and remember the other stressful situations you have already gotten through.
great points and yes music does help some people your right and if you been stressed in the past and got over it think you get over it soon again thats a good positive way to look at it ,thanks for your comments my friend:banana: waving :thumbsup:

Some days I handle it better than others. Maybe cause I am not always stressed. I try not to get so combative with people who are combative. One of the best things I remember from nursing class when training as an aide is, "He who argues with a fool is a fool." It has benefited me on those times I could remember it. Trying to step back and refocusing helps. Its is like do I really want to get all bent out of shape about it. Some times it is like God help me I can't deal with this. In learning to realize that other are just people like myself dealing with their own problems is to realize that I have to deal with my own problems. But then there are those days when I just can't practice what I preach and just think, "Screw it." Maybe this test I am going through is for a reason. And surely there must be some reason this test has come my way. Walking is good therapy I have found and venting has become one of my favorite past times of late.laugh I really like those two vultures perched on a limb on that picture with the saying, "Patience hell, Lets kill something."laugh I mean sometimes you just have to get real and realize your own limitations. I mean like what can I really do about this impossible situation. I have been in these no-win situations where who knows what the right thing to do is. I do like to jam to music to take my mind off of things sometimes. Just realizing that this too shall pass works for me sometimes. But then there are those times when nothing works. It is in those times that I am just human after all.:smile:
you made some great points he who argues with a fool is a fool just like add more fuel to the fire it will get bigger and worse but you know something
patience is a virtue and sounds like you dealt with things in your life and been both ways blown up and had the patience so if you can learn from yourself what your saying to what your limit is always try and just hold a little bit more each time and then gets stronger and stronger cheers :banana:waving :thumbsup:
