Sometimes stress is good do that it can pressure us to be a better person. To release this kind of stress we, have to take a turning point and learn from our mistakes and others. Take that successful person as a mentor who will guide us through many success. Everyone will get their piece of cake in the world, only if they strive enough and take initiative to reach that goal, then only they have a chance. Good luck for you and your family.

There are many stress management techniques such as deep-breathing and meditation. Sometimes, all you need is a friend, a listening ear to all your concerns and worries. At times, you'll realize that just by simply talking about things will help you ease your burden and feel inspired and strengthened to carry on.

We all get stress because it is after a part of living from day to day. I deal with it with Zen meditation (zazen) that stills the mind as I focus on the inhalation and exhalation. I do this for around 30-40 minutes each day. As a therapist, I help others to handle their stress in the same way. - Derek

Well, there are definitely days when there is a lot of stress in my life. Luckily for me, though, it's not everyday that I'm really stressed about something or other. On those days, when I'm really stressed, I will usually try to relax by reading a book, watching a movie, meditate, take a bath, or something like that.

Stress is a big part of life nowadays and I think the first step towards a less stressed life is not to compare yourself to other people and to feel gratitude for what you have. I de-stress by making time for the things I enjoy like reading, writing, films etc although it is very difficult to find the time on occasion! I think overall the best thing is to let go of control a bit and not try to have everything done perfectly at all times, develop a sense of humour and let the house get messy every now and again!

One of my stress relievers when I was still working in the call center industry was to go on out of town trips. The mere thought of going away was enough to make me relax and it did help me cope with a lot of very stressful days at work. But ever since my mother is sick with cancer, I can no longer afford to go out of town. So my stress reliever right now are my cats and my orchids.

I have had a great deal of stress in my life the past few months. This was due to the domestic violence and finally sparating from my husband. I am trying to deal with it, and I dont know if my suggestions would help you. First of all, I try and keep active. Having things to do always helps, even if it is some boring housework. I have spent a lot of time on my garden, weeding and watering. I have a goodbook to read, but dont become obsessed with reading it, but it's good to have a novel to switch off at times. Most importantly, I spend time with my 16 year old daughter. We watch the occasional movies together and I read the stories she writes. My daughter has helped me more than anything else. Plus, Im planning for Christmas, and that helps keep my mind active. I hope you can find some ways to release your stress.

hi monkeylong well in today's economy stress is popping up in a lot of households.but we do not have to react to it.we do not have to stress over little things and most things are little. also you can built an imaginary bubble around you that is stress free and cannot let stress in. also when you go to bed pile all the s tress in a big heap in the corner as you cannot do a thing about your problems at night. Also get a large plastic garbage container, take your food way back and kick that can like crazy and yell out out out stress leave me alone.damn damn. then start laughing at yourself.works like a charm. really.

I'm not as stressed as I used to be! I used to suffer from stress a lot and then I had to see a counsellor in order to discuss my thoughts and reflections. I love easy listening music now and I find that this helps me a lot. I also love watching movies and reading books and this is a form of escapism for me. I'm a keen cyclist too and I love to take in the fresh air, I find that all these things help me to remain in a state of calm! I think that it's important not to constantly rush around trying to get from a to b, that will definitely cause a lot of stress. Well, I wish you luck and keep smiling! Andrew

there was a time when i used to be stressed out a lot. but now it is no longer a problem. i personally think that stress results when we are not sure what we really want and start chasing things that we may actually not require. because of this we often enter the mad rat race and start acquiring things that we may actually not require. we also tend to compare ourselves with others but fail to see that there are many who have more problems than us. we start counting what we don't have rather than what we have. and that results in more stress. i would humbly suggest you some serious introspection. as to what you actually want from yourself in life

There are lots of stresses in my life at the moment. I think most people share the same stress of a worsening financial situation. I do lay awake at night wondering if I will manage to pay the bills ... and just when I think everything is getting better, something happens which takes my money! I find it hard to relax - so a good run helps me release. Happy myLotting!

There are many methods to release stress, and not all work for everyone. Some people can get rid of stress by chewing gum, other people just begin eating without control, some others need to hit something or shout, and some others just listen to very hard and strong music. Try a few ones and choose the one that will work for you.

i am a very positive person, i don't get to be down by stress easily. paying the bills and needing to hit the monthly quota is my demons. you just need a little diversion in your life for you not to have your full attention in your stress. besides, did you ask yourself what did your friends do to you to get you annoyed? i think its not your friends having cars or big houses but yourself. you cant control your envy to them. i believe its not stress thats eating but your ENVY to your friends.

Right now there is a lot of stress in my life. My family and I are currently in the process of moving to Tennesse and we're trying to sell the house in Baltimore but it doesn't seem to be working. To top it off my daughter plans on getting married on May 15th. She's determined for it to be on this day. I'm trying to get my parents to moe down as well and my cousin is having problems with her brother so I'm trying to help her our by giving her a place to stay. I'm not entirely sure how I deal with all of it. Maybe because I work on one preoblem at a time and just do what I can. It's still frustrating but it's not as bad as it is when I let it all get to me.

Hi monkeylong Well it sounds like that you are under the stress factor at this time. I really know how you feel when it comes to stress. I have stress levels right now that are above the roof level. I try to work on here some, and then I will try and see all the good in my life. If you focus on what is good then the bad doesn't seem that bad. Im not a big book reader so I have to find other ways to release. I'm not sure exactly one thing that I do but I know that I have to release it some way or another. I have gone for a drive by myself and talk outloud and shed some tears. I hope that you get everything in check. Have a good day and keep smiling.

I sure have a lot of stress in my life. I'm a teenager that goes through the basic stuff. Family problems, Friend drama, relationship drama, HIGH SCHOOL WORK, and many other things. The things I usually do to help me feel better are to talk to a good friends to comfort you, listen to some music to get your mind off things, or think of all the positive things going on in your life. Usually I feel better in a matter of time. A hobby would be a good idea.
