I understand that I in general have the wrong way to deal with stress.
so learning from people’s experience what they do, what works best.

Sex!.........j/k :p X2 Bhai
working out on the treadmill is a complete stress reliever for me, i get 1000+ calories off and i get to read fashion/beauty magazines and listen to awesome music while im doing it. It helps me calm down.
if i'm at work, i drink a whole bottle of water and take deep breaths 4 or 5 times during some alone time plus i give myself a pep talk in the mirror of the bathroom and off i go back
stay away from the milk chocolate at all costs.
eagerly waiting for other responses, need new techniques
Re: stress, and how do you deal with it.
I watch a movie or some light show. I also light candles (lol, this would probably be too girly for you BUT there is one candle in particular from Bath & Body Works that smells like a minty/fresh men's cologne called "Eucalyptus Spearmint" and just inhaling it deep makes me relax like nothing else I use it while studying too, use the lotion on my hands while writing for the same purpose. You need to smell it to get what I'm talking about).
I also like drinking coffee, something about it calms me down. Working out, like Nisha mentioned, is another.

i take a nap makes me forget the tension for a bit or i clean the house with music playing.

I say "Screw it" to my diet and find something chocolatey, then I watch a movie/show that I like, and it has to be fictional...because when reality sucks, you need an escape, and fantasy movies/books lets you fantasize.

Re: stress, and how do you deal with it.
I get out of the house for a while. I like going to Barnes and Noble…sit in a comfortable chair…read a book/magazine…maybe get something to eat. Today I was feeling really really stressed…so I got a mani/pedi. Venting to family/friends can also help. Working out can also help…and as you exert yourself…picture bashing the faces in of certain chitheads. :halo:

Have or develop a hobby/passion
Re: stress, and how do you deal with it.
Blog about it. I was once told to write my anger away and burn that paper but I found that e,xtreme so I just blog.
Re: stress, and how do you deal with it.
It really depends on what I am stressed out about and the emotions I am feeling.
If I am mad...I workout as it helps me get my frustration out.
If I am sad, I watch a funny movie or read something that will get me back into the right mood.
If I am tired and overworked, I take a break. I get all of my favorite things together and spend a quiet evening at home watching a good movie or two.
Sleep also helps.

Gym. Running & doing weights. Yoga class. And if I'm extra stressed....I ask my trainer to do kick boxing with me (this works every single time!).

Re: stress, and how do you deal with it.
It depends on degree of stress . I sit down and analyze the situation on paper with what is happening and what is at stake and what I can do to combat the situation who can help me , how they can help me etc then I follow one plan if it does not work I go to the second plan.
Once I had such a stressful situation that I had to go to my doctor who gave me some medication to calm my nerves down . It helped a bit.
