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 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.
