How do you deal with the neverending stress if you have it ?

I would say with the years of experience that I have had, I have learned to lean on God's understanding and not my own, and that if God brings me to it, then he will bring me through it. These are the times that God is growing us to reach new levels. What about the chammomile tea that you llked so well! That would help take some of the edge off!

to ease stress, I always get a warm/hot shower to relax my tensed muscles (usually my shoulders, back). Then after that, either I just lie down on my bed and stare into space, sorta just empty my mind and think happy thoughts. Then I pray. After that, everything just goes into place and im free from stress. Breaking away from everyday monotony is also good, a short vacation could help. A change of environmen (even for a day) works wonders. Get a massage and set a day for pampering yourself. :)

I feel this way too, a lot. I also feel like there is some sort of rhythm that the rest of the world is on but I cannot quite get into the groove of. I try to slow down and take stock of everything once in awhile, to sort of centre myself.

Stressed spelled backwards is desserts. Sometimes brownies and ice cream works. Usually it's mediation or working out in the gym that helps me. I worry more than I stress. But then, I stress about worrying, which leads back to brownies, which sends me back to the gym_

I always need my moments of peace. I find activities I enjoy to take some of the stress away. Writing helps me a lot. That's probably my favorite creative outlet. Followed by my guitar, of course. I'm always playing my guitar.

I wish that I knew some better ways to handle my stress because the last 6 monthes or so and especially the last month. I am getting to that at my wits end point and running out of ways to deal with it!

I went through a bad period of stress two years ago, it was so bad I lost 5 stone in weight altogether!! I did not do anything for it, I do not think I fully realised at the time that it was stress that I was suffering from. I would not want to take medication for it though anyway. My main stress buster is a naughty one, I just go outside with a coffee and a ciggie, and that works well enough for me!

I do take frequent breaks from work.It has become a little problematic.These days working without stress has become a rare thing.

Lately it seems like once a week I just lock myself in my room and cry. It really helps me get rid of all the everyday stress. And I know it is going to get worse before it gets better with the cost of so many common things skyrocketing.
