How do you deal with stress?

Do you carry it all and fill your glass until it overflows? Or maybe you have an endless one where no matter how stressful something its just nothing new to you so you let it go and keep moving. Or do you enjoy it because it makes you act upon things and do what you need or want to do? Have you ever had am anxiety attack and why?

          • I've bottled it up enough to the point where I have an eye twitch that's very visible and it happens often. I also have pretty intense bursts of anger for the smallest reasons that I bottle up even more because I'm afraid I'll strangle the nearest person.

            Depends. Music and gaming work for most things but sometimes something happens that only drinking and punching things works for. [spoiler]my knuckles are still red from last time[/spoiler]

            • I have individual "fusses" for individual people. But I tend to bottle it up. I wouldn't advise against being the first to burn up your fuse with me. I don't handle stupid very well!

              • I have had 2 panic attacks to date, both in the same week. I deal with my stress by mostly depending on my wife for emotional support. Working out. Video games. Bsing on this site.

              • I used to consistently have anxiety attacks, for almost no reason whatsoever. I think the last one I had was due to my friend not answering the phone and I hadn't had medication for about a week. My mind immediately goes to the worst thing imaginable. I'm sure there were more things contributing, but that triggered it. I'm not normal, so I'm not sure if this was even directed at me. I have what is considered moderate anxiety problems and I used to be medicated for it. Switched jobs and waiting for insurance kings if puts me in a bind. I tend to self medicate in the mean time with something that no one thinks helps, but it certainly does to me. Perhaps it's placebo, IDK. Generally when I'm having an anxiety attack it's like 1000 voices are in my head at once. It's just static. Can't focus, and immediately have to withdraw myself from anyone. I tend to just breathe deeply, do my best to relax, and just try to clear my thoughts until it passes. But general stress since I'm always stressed just seems to not be much a problem. My mind is already going a mile a minute thinking of every little detail of everyday things anyways, so anything that stresses me out is actually dealt with quickly. I run every scenario in my head, pick the best course of action, and try my best to just let it roll off. To give you an idea about how little something has to be to stress me I'm currently thinking how bad an idea it is to let off-topic know I have anxiety issues. Something as insignificant as posting on a forum anonymously stresses me out.

              • I bottle it up, use strategies to take my mind off it, I think I'm starting to become numb to it, to a certain degree. Addressing what's causing the stress is always the best course of action, but sometimes it's just not possible.

              • I try to fix the problem. What is stressing me? What can I do to stop it? If I am worried about the door being locked, I go check. Stop the what ifs. What ifs will let your imagination go wild in a bad spiral. Stop it before it gets too far. If you don't like going a certain way, find a different way around. I don't like going on main highways so I find a different route that feels less chaotic. Always try out new things even if uncomfortable. Push yourself through it. Anxiety is just an emotional illusion. Anxiety is going to make you think the worst thing is going to happen to you. Knowing yourself more and understanding how you handle stress will help you with dealing with it. Think of it like a video game. In order to get better you have to understand how your character moves, moves while taking hits, etc.
