What do you do..?

 

 

 

When school/work becomes overwhelming, people are always asking you to do things, you can barely find time to eat (or use the restroom for that matter), and you've just about had it.. When every little thing sets you off and you can't help but complain about the little things.. When everything gets too stressful..

 

 

 

How do you get rid of all that stress?

 

 

 

Personally, I say screw whatever I'm supposed to be doing.. I turn up the music, grab some paper + a pencil, lock the door, and spend hours enjoying my time alone.. I know I'll have to catch up on what I'm suppose to be doing but I put that out of my mind knowing it'll be easier once I'm back to my good old self.

 

 

 

Speaking of which.. I'm off to draw for a while..

I hope on MS Flight Simulator and continue my travels around the world. Always on multiplayer so I can chat aviation with the guys online.

 

 

 

Just pick a hobby! Something fun, and not repetitive! Something you truly enjoy doing.

 

 

 

Most importantly: Get away from what is causing you the stress!

 

 

 

I personally escape anywhere with a movie or even a day trip to Palo Duro Canyon.

Curl up in a corner and start poppin' pills...

 

 

 

Umm, seriously, I just forget about the school work for just a little while. I get on the internet, start listening to music, and take a break.

I... I play music :) It relaxes me and allows me too think. I also play music that isn't on my school list, all the music i know from elsewhere. Not anything that will remind me of school :XD:

Listen to some Ska!

 

 

 

And I talk to all my friends, they all help me a lot.

I deal with it, and then just take any of the emotions i have left over (if im stressed, im usually angry) and play video games. Just immerse myself in a new world and a diffrent life helps.

What do you do..?

If I do anything other what I'm meant to be doing, everything just gets worse.

It's all in the music man.

 

 

 

I was talking with my friend a bit back about this, after I came back from a pretty stupid day of Bio Lab. Bassicly said I was stuck paired with two idiots. To make it worse, one of them was one of those people that always go "I suck at bio..." "i suck at this..." "i suck at that..." ect. I've got to tell you, it's damn anoying.

 

 

 

So after bio I was a bit steamed. To add to the fire I had to deal with an idiot in guild wars:factions (who, after a PvP match blamed me [the monk] for not healing well. Little did he see there was an enemy mesmer [anti-monk I must add] taking off all the enchantments I use for healing. I tried to explain to him and we started to argue. Well, I misspelled "really" (I said Realy...) and he realy got on my back about that.

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, I decided to walk down to the taco johns down about half a mile. On the way I sort of listened to something like this:

 

 

 

Brutal Death metal --> Death metal --> Entergetic Power metal ---> more Power metal ---> Few awsome song's with great solos. I ended with getting taco johns 8-) . I've gotta say, felt much better after that :lol:.

 

 

 

 

 

But anyways, music is it for me.

I stop, drop, and sleep it out. Then start over the next day.

I deal with it, and then just take any of the emotions i have left over (if im stressed, im usually angry) and play video games. Just immerse myself in a new world and a diffrent life helps.

 

 

 

Be careful with that though. Taking out emotions on a game is still relying on emotions. The trick is forgetting about what causes you stress.

 

 

 

Over the weekend, I was writing a 10 page paper and just couldnt work. I turned on the TV and Patton was on. After 5 hours of awesomeness, I was refreshed and able to finish the paper!

Listening to music always seems to calm me down when I'm stressed out.

Well, I misspelled "really" (I said Realy...) and he realy got on my back about that.

 

 

 

I'm sorry, but that is the best thing I've seen all day :)

I put on some music, normally something relaxing or one of those songs that always puts a smile on my face, barrage myself in my room and lie on my bed. Takes me away from it all.

Overefficiency is ridiculous, people NEED breaks to avoid stress that could ultimately tire you so much you couldn't even get up to school/work in the mornings.

 

 

 

Good things to do.. Listen to music, watch TV, read. I wouldn't suggest video games though, that's just me.

 

 

 

Sometimes in life, no matter what "deadlines" and "timetables" your projects or 'necessary' work have, you must let it slip. Not always, but once in a while. Sure there are those who can work almost 24/7, but for how long they can keep it up or how it will affect them 10 years later, we don't know.

I go for a very long bike ride, leave a message on the home phone, stay out as long as I want, come back when I want. I listen to reassuring music and try to unpick what's annoying me, while avoiding contact with every other living being except Tess. :D

It's already breaking me down, and I've only been doing it since late July :uhh: If I take a break, it's a 30 minute power-nap at most. Hence only a few hours of sleep per night. It's hardly solid few hours, it's always staggered #-o

I relieve stress by going outside and hitting rotten apples from our apple trees with a baseball bat. Or i go to the range and sqeeze of a few rounds.

I write in my diary, maybe one day they will be placed alongside the infamous war diaries of Napoleon where all will marvel in my never fading splendor. Where they will cheer for my name and praise me for my conquests.

When life gets tough, I ram it till it gives up. That'll teach it to be disobedient.

Kill people

 

 

 

Prefrably on Battlefield 2.

I usually listen to music or play basketball., if it is at the weekend then I might play videogames.

 

 

 

Best option (I find) is to immerse yourself in something until you subconsciously find a solution to a problem.

Well, usually I dont let project slip. But sometimes, i'm not in the mood. I end up listening to music, or playing some basketball with friends. If the condition outside isn't good (Rain, snow) then i'll usually read some TIF forums and get back to the project. :) .

Quit.

I go find a quite corner, take a moment to recollect myself and confront the problem head on. No point beating in around the bush.

Quit.

:wink:
