Hi,
As my response for another discussion,I always talk to my friends or do something with my friends,like shopping,seeing a moive,doing some sports and so on, to stay stree free.I think friends are the best way.They sometimes can help me solve the problem, but sometimes they don't even need to do anyting else and just listen to me. Friends are always on your side.

shamsta19, everyone goes through that point in our lives. The only cure for your stress is your mind. Make sure you need to relax and think of the things you should ought to do.

I suggest, if you were in my place:
1. Id go to a place so serene and quiet like a trip to the beach where nobody is around (there is a place here in the philippines) and no disturbing sound.

2. list on a paper what has been stressing you a lot lately.

3. one by one think of the things you think you should do so that you will be stress free when you go home.

As for me, it came to a point when I got sick and depression is killing me. I went to this nice and quiet place and spent three days with two of the best friend just sitting on the beach side and reading books or just lying around. it helped me clear my mind and focus on important things.:D

Hello,shamasta!we all have some sort of problem or other.don't take it seriously.to get rid of stress you should vent your feelings and emotions to people close to you.the more you bottle up,the more you will find it difficult to find hope.avoid polarising your thoughts.have good diets and enough fluids.when you are tensed,certain hormones work over time and to balance that,have proper diets.eat enough carbo-rich foods as eating carbohydrates boosts your level of triptophan and serotonin- the two feel good brain chemicals.another important nutrient you need to fight stress is vitamin B6,found in meat liver,whole grains,and vegetables like potatoes.you may even consume honey.honey is the right cure for stress.diets sweetened with honey may be beneficial in decreasing anxiety.besides try to meditate for at least 30 minutes. practice this formula and get rid of stress.thanx.

try playing remove stress games, google it to find out
well, i watch funny clips-hehe

Some of my friends will go do some extreme exercise to relieve stress, for me what works is doing housework I scrub the he!! out of the bathtub lol. I just work myself to death then I am too darn tired to think about stress and it gets out some of the anger I am feeling.
When you have so much going on in your life you have negative feelings and just getting them out by doing something physical like tennis or racket ball or running even punching a pillow will help get those negative feelings out.
I hope that helps you if you try it, best wishes my friend.

I hear you on that and you are not alone, I have been having musch of the same problems, actually the exact same, and in the beginning I moped around like whoa is me but now I came to terms with certain issues and just realize that if you are in a negative situation just try to think of some things like improvements you can make on your end that would make life easier for you, especially since when it comes to people (your girl problems) you cannot change someone else. I'm not saying change for her, but like me, if you want things to work out, and there are some things that are not good right now, look at it from a different perspective and see if there is anything that you can do to improve the situation, without changing who you are or what you believe in. As for the living arrangements, I live with my sister and it is so tense sometimes and over the smallest and most insignificant things that I find when it is like that, I either go in my room and close the door and put on a good movie and try to forget about it or I remove myself from my situation and go by a friends place or hang out with people who I know I will have a good time with an djust try to forget. Because tomorrow is a new day and maybe if you sleep on it, you will come up with a better solution. As for finances, I think most of us are in the same boat and all I can say is if you are in a secure job even if the money isn't so great stick with it because right now job security is key. You can always look for something else to do as an added income, but with todays rising prices of everything, how much income is really enough for average working people like us?

One thing I can tell you, stress is a silent killer. Feeling overwhelmed with so many problems, feeling isolated from friends and family can lead to feeling stressed out all the time. The main thing to remember in stress management is to keep breathing. When I say keep breathing, I don't mean taking "normal" breaths, but breathing from the diaphram. Try lying on the floor or on the bed, and put a fairly heavy book on your stomach and concentrate on making the book go up and down just by breathing. You'd be surprised just how badly we all breathe. By posting here on myLot, you can vent frustrations, ask for advice or just use the other members as sounding boards. At any rate, there's not "cure" per se for stress, but it can be managed. Hope this helps some.
