STress Options

[devilsden97]

Ok, recently, well not really recently, mostly since college started ive been WAY stressed out. What does everyone else do to "relieve" stress? And plz dont suggest yoga or something, im really not into that. I'm not gonna say im a MAcho man, but....well no yoga lol

Recently i went and played some roller hockey with a buddy of mine, (i used to play when i was younger, helped with my ADD) and i felt alot better after i played...less stressed and ****. So idk, just going out to skate alot is hard, so i was looking at some other options.

Go do any type of exercise. Studies show that exercise releases endorphins(ithink what its called) that makes the body feel good= less stress.

alot of people resort to illegal smoking of herbal medical plants, but im not going to recommend that. I go shooting when im stressed out, but sometimes that doesnt work cuz my aim sucks and if i cant hit what im aiming at, lol

Couple of things. I dont do drugs/smoke/whatever. Shooting i cant just go and get a gun......nor would I because there are others in my house that are stupid. (me included)
And exercise is good and all, but i cant go out everyday and do something. And Endorphins are right, just probally spelt wrong.

golfing can be relaxing... or very stressful depending on how ya shoot that day... though if you have never played then starting would probally be stressful cause like anything it takes practice to get better

^...true..lol...when im stressed..i either go for a drive and find some new roads to drive, or just hit some ones i know r fun...or i go do some Parkour, or i call the gf..hehehe. I used to play Counterstrike or half life back when i had nothin better to do/didnt have a car. I found blowin stuff up in a game make alot of stress go away. Another thing i do, listen to either really really really heavy metal, or listen to really mellow rock.

tanning, exercise, sex.

If/when I am stressed out I head up to the skate park and ride the ramps. The feeling of rolling around and getting effortless air makes me smile. But I guess that can be considered exercise...

And sex.

[brianforster]

drink or drive, but not together. sex/time with the girlfriend helps if you have one (i currently dont, haha)

i drink even when im not stressed though, i try not to let myself get stressed, its kind of like working out, but for your brain. try to take control of your life, its pretty easy, just wake up and tell yourself to be happy. its really that simple, dont sweat the small stuff, and try to change the big stuff, if you cant, just roll with the punches. life is too short to be spent worrying/stressed/depressed.

^ nicely said brian

I try to avoid stress most the time, but when it does occur, i result to a punching bag, video games or playin the drums...i know the 3rd one probably doesnt apply, but the first two are good ones.
