I seem to always getting stressed about the little things I wish i could get past that but it is hard.
-
Usually I get rid of stress by hitting the gym or going for a long drive. I have even went and played golf, theres really all kinds of ways to get rid of stress.

Try neurofeedback....expensive, but I hear its very effective and non-invasive.

I deal with stress and have learned to be much more relaxed. But there are some days it shows in the neck muscles and then starts a little headache. I know the cause but gosh when it comes out there it is hard to shake. I try a lot of things . . . To share with you how I removed a great deal of my stress, like 95%, I recognized where it actually came from . . . For me, it was feeling like I had to be better, I had to handle everything, it all had to be right, a bit of control because it had to be right and I had my idea of how "right" is, etc. Do you get where I am coming from? So then I put it in perspective and some with the help of a brutal tongued friend - what happened if I didn't handle it etc. Really nothing. I used to like to think the world would crumble. LOL But no . . . everyone would go on their lovely way just as well or OTHERS would step up to the plate and handle it. In family, I figured it out it "didn't" have to be me all the time to handle. Others would step up but why did they have to with me around? At work, if I ended up with some horrible virus and no way to go to work, they still functioned just fine. Yeah, maybe things might be a little smoother for others, but really not the end of the world. And what if it was the end of the world tomorrow or my world, my last day, boom and over? What did some of these things I worried about really matter? Would they really matter in the great scheme of things? I was always late and couldn't understand why -- I tried sooo hard. Well, I was stressing and trying to do to many things, etc. So others lives were smoother but I was stressed out! I hated to say no. I hated to not be there for everyone etc. BUT I learned I am not that "all mighty", I cannot fix everything and most of all everything will all work out and be fine almost everytime even without me . . . So I have worked very hard and thought hard to learn these lessons and finally no more migraines after years of them. Occasionally, I have to check myself even now. I would fix the whole world if I could - I would help every person if I could - I would make life perfect for all --- but I can't no matter how hard and stressed. AND like at work or family, I only get as stressed out as I let them make me! That is in my control. People will push you to the ends and just expect more if you let them. We all need reality check once in a while and you may be super but you are still human. Our mind is a powerful tool. Hope helps in some way . ..

Just do whatever makes you happy. Meet up with a good friend and just hang out, exercise, catch in a movie, go to the beach or hike (just get outside), deep breathing exercises and/or meditation...just a few suggestions :)

Consider that some stress is a great motivator and strive not to eliminate all of it. There may not be a lot of difference between stressless and lethargic.

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge.
It does wonders for having a clean conscience and that can lead to less stress or at least how to remedy it.
Heartfelt prayer can also lead to "power beyond what is normal"at the right time.

There is no evidence of that which isn't falsely-attributed.

We actually need a certain amount of stress to function! Usually when people refer to stress or "stressing out" they mean distress (vs. eustress which is good stress). Being distressed feels awful and runs ourbodies and minds down. There are lots of ways people cope with distress: deep breathing and relaxation, taking walks, hitting a punching bag, prayer or religious practices, organization and time management improvement, to name a few. You should look at the sources of the bad stress and try to determine if it is something that can be controlled or improved, and work on a system to cope with it.

I'll add that to my achived quotes and remark that fear of some hypothetical supernatural entity is the end of knowledge, not the beginning.

Lots and lots of push ups. Keeping your mind on good things and not bad ones. Listening to music or watching a good movie. Anything positive. :thumbsup:
