    Depends on what's causing it. My general cure however has been taking a drive, coming back home, writing about it. Oh and I like driving in silence.

    In my case, most of my stress comes from my personal desire to excel. Sometimes, you just have to realize not meeting expectations won't be the end of the world and take things more lightly. If it's stress from a large workload, I prioritize. Do all the work in classes that are tougher for you personally, and BS/not do the homework in a class you are better off in. If it's stress from tests/quizzes/finals/midterms, I can't help you too much, since tests and stuff never really bother me. If its stress from relationships, I can't help either. Taking an occasional break can help a lot too (i.e. nap to break up your homework loads), as long as the break length is reasonable. otherwise, you'll procrastinate and get even more stress later. EDIT: yes, what sangara said; depends on the source of the stress. if you could give more details, i'm sure we'd be able to help better

    I would, but its rather private. And by private, I mean its bothering the shit out of me and I would be willing to strangle that person causing it.

    Aight, this is how I deal with stress. Smile like a retard, yes. Watch some funny videos and laugh even if it is forceful. Take a cold shower, and wear light coloured clothes. Make sure you sing in the shower, whistling also works. Don't dry your hair. Take a walk outside in the fresh air and enjoy it or watch some more funny videos with something cold to drink. Try it, it might work. Try to clear your mind and try to convince yourself that you got this, this is easy. You aint gonna let this defeat you. All the best. @Colin

    stress is not something that comes across quite often for me but when it does, if it has to do with a girl just f**k it literally, stop talking to her til you over the stress a bit and dont let a girl think she's got control over you, if its stress caused from work or school just chill, listen to music, watch tv or do anything to get your mind off of it, find things that relax you, or things you like to do and forget about what's stressing you for a moment

    My favorite stress reliever: exercise. Biking, walking, yoga. And just sitting down at a park and just clear your mind. You can't just ignore stressful situations. You have to deal with it or it will come back. :) ~KTSpinner~

    personally, i play guitar/listen to music, and play tennis for stress. i think these things that act like an escape work well for minor issues, and this seems like its something big, so i think you should find someone you really trust and just sit down and talk to them for awhile about everything. like what Kari said, you can't ignore it, itll come back.. hope everything works out for you, even though i dont really know you :P if theres NO ONE you can talk to, i guess youll just have to spend sometime meditating about the problem, just dont let emotions overwhelm you sorry if any of this advice is bad, hopefully some people can say what they agree/disagree with though

    This is an old thread but here's what I do: 1. Masturbate - The most easy and probably fastest way to relieve stress but if that doesn't work: 2. Write all that bothers you down while listening to some good calming music. You don't have to post it or show it to anyone, sometimes when something annoys me or is on my mind I just open notepad and I write all that shit down, thinking about how I formulate my sentences and what words I use distracts me from the stress and once I'm done it's a load off my mind. Not sure if that works for others but does wonders for me.

    That works. Not sure about the masturbation part though. Anyway I don't just write it down like you. I turn it into poetry. ;) ~KTSpinner~

    Well the masturbation part is pretty much scientifically proven so ...

    I remember this thread, I'll contribute a serious answer this time. I think the best way is to avoid stress in the first place. If you avoid most stress causing activities then you'll be unstressed enough to handle the inevitable ones.

    i try to hold it in, since my mom doesn't know how to handle stress. it doesn't work though, but while she's screaming the living fuck out of her lungs, i'm clenching my fists so i guess i handle things better than her.

    ^ yep, screaming to an open field is imo the best way to release stress + some random punching/ kicking in the air or w/e

    Alright, revive, again. Basically my ex-girlfriend's current boyfriend is a f ucking nutcase. He knows where I live, he knows where I work, and he went to check out some school fundraiser and was looking for me yesterday. However, I wasnt there yesterday. I was trying to meet up with a friend (who just SO happens to live outside her workplace, at the same time she gets off) and he walks up to my car and threatens me to stay away from the area. A month prior, I was at her house to get my sweater back from her. (Never got that sweater back btw). I was driving away when I see someone sprinting after my car. I look carefully and he's holding some kind of bar or something and sprinting towards me while I drive away. He calls me 5 minutes later and tells me "if he ever sees me in that area again im fkucing dead." On her birthday in January, I went to go pick her up from his house. Me and her get into an argument, and I decide to step away and have a cig to calm myself down. I was screaming at the top of my lungs and I just needed to get some air. He walks up to me "You think you're a badas? You think you're cool? The next time you make her cry you're dead." His dad comes out and intervenes, and being the businessman that he is "Look, kid, I don't know what's going on here, but I can make your life miserable. Get out of here." I'm 17, he's 19, she's 20. He's made her cut all ties with me, for whatever reason I do not know. But I have not seen her, talked to her or interacted with her for almost 2 months. I want this to stop. Seriously. I didnt do sh!t to him and he's coming after me like I killed his family. I'm tired of this, and quite honestly I know he's going to go after my family if it gets any further. They own a restaurant, (where I work), and if he's going to sprint after my car with a bar in his hand, he will do some damage to the restaurant. Now, I COULD go to the police with this and saying that he's threatening me. But that is going to involve my family and I dont want to involve my family anymore into this. I could talk to him. But the last time he wanted to "talk to me" , he came with 4 of his friends. I wasn't driving my FG, I was driving my MR2. I just drove away. The reason why I mention this is because he knows my plate too, like the fkcuing crazy he is. What do I do? Any input will be greatly appreciated.

    Yeah aside from anybody walking by and the fact that if they decide to arrest you you'll get more than a slap on the wrist if they decide to take it further.

    Generally my solution when I'm stressed is (when no one's home) to bawl my eyes out for about 2 min, man up and then lay in my bed for about 2 hours analyzing the situation while blasting music so that I cant even hear the phone ring.
