How do you people cope with a high stress level?

Punching bags? Drive?

SyL3nTFoRcE · 12-03-2012, 11:57 AM

Drive for when i get a headache caused by stress, and work on cars is a good stress reliever for me.

Ive noticed time in the gym helps alot to

Ahh yes...I can make good use of my gym membership tonight...

Id say gym or basketball for me. A good session of hoop therapy is heaven on earth for me.

I like to go on a mountain drive. Makes me forget about a lot of things that is going on.

SpeedOften · 12-03-2012, 12:36 PM

My stress level was pegged recently. The gym can help, but I didn't have time to go (some long hours at work and a 2 year old).

I had a nice day in the middle of my stressful mess, I got to spend a day alone at my cabin in Tahoe, I took four of my guns to a 'shooting range' and went through about 400 rounds.

escobar929 · 12-03-2012, 01:41 PM

sex and a joint

UltimateBMW · 12-03-2012, 02:01 PM

Laugh.

M_Six · 12-03-2012, 02:08 PM

My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.

I go for a fast 5k run, and relax in the tub after that... with some good weed. Works every time.

ComplacentMike · 12-03-2012, 02:33 PM

shit load of weed and a drank

Angerman · 12-03-2012, 03:13 PM

whiskey and video games. And when really angry/stressed/drinking for a few hours I like to yell at 12 year olds on COD

Rowdy · 12-03-2012, 03:14 PM

A good workout.. even if its not a long one (somewhere around the 30 min mark) is great. I also write when I'm stressed. But what I need on paper or into the phone and it usually feels like I've taken a load off the shoulders. It also keeps you organized and from forgetting vital things that may lead to more stress later

RambleJ · 12-03-2012, 03:34 PM

I manage sales people. So I deal with stress on a weekly to monthly basis. I always use the gym with some nice angry metal

grieverr · 12-03-2012, 04:13 PM

um...take naked pics and put them on the internet?!

kidding! (laughing helps)

Something physical definitely helps. Gym, run, bike, punching bag.
I like to cook, it relaxes me.
Drinking works with friends, not alone.
Lastly, some down time can also help. Take a long bath, watch a funny movie, take a nap.
