what are your everyday stressors and how do you handle them?

[MoneyPowerRespect]

My 4yo is a lot.

Between the screaming, potty-training, and general dissatisfaction with life, I smoke.

A LOT.

I'm working on sending him with his dad for a week or two next summer, but I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't scared.

But..I smoke, walk, journal and do my hair.

I was gonna make a similar thread.. about handling stress(but was like fuck it)

Work is stress. lack of communication.. alot of bullshit from sales reps/csr and cheap ass owners(i got a snarky email that made me want to knife this clown like 5 times in the stomach and punch him in the throat)

In the moment its annoying as fuck.. but i take my stress ball it up and throw it away. i just let that shit go

- I run a business where I'm conscious about getting duped on prices/quality of work, so I'm always triple checking shit.

- GF with anxiety so I'm constantly having to keep myself level to support her or she melts down

- Still answer to CaCs in the corporate job

Kick it w my homies, buy stuff i like. Wash my cars and take nighttime cruises make me feel good.

Lol no more small vessels for me or I literally will be laid out

*Working long hours at work. They’re laying folks off trying to find some money somewhere, so that stays on my mind.

*Got a baby at the crib, so after work, I go home and pretty much give her all of my attention and she tires a nigga out lol.

*My relationship with my girl. Both of us are engineers who work long hours. Then we come home, and pretty much devote our time to the baby. It’s almost like we forgot about each other. We’re working on that, but the whole situation is a huge stress builder

I drink lol. My company offers me free flight benefits, so I fly to different spots when I’ve got the time. I drive around in my truck to clear my head. I fish. Just picked up smoking cigars - this helps a lot. I also read my bible and a prayer book each morning before I start my day.

Gym.

say whaaaaaaaa

not you nigga

 

[Koltrain]

Starting a new payroll company with my family, to help service our healthcare business. Trying to get everything organized and and setup systems for growth..along with building credit repair & real estate clientele. Kids are 4,3, 2weeks old.

But the main stressor is my corporate job.. Receiving e-mails about record profits, while the workload increases without a portion of that increase. Constant process changes and lack of control over my time.

I pray alot. I also like to organize stuff... That feeling of knowing where everything is calming. Setting goals has also been a big stress reliever. Reading my goals, then meditating on accomplishing them and visualizing...all help me out.

Xanax and shopping are my go to for stress relief

Sometimes kicking with my girl Mary helps too but I tend to rely on her for good times not stressful ones

 

[aneed123]

music.. movies strip club shooting pool be my stress relief

 

[BiblicalAtheist]

Remind myself the planet is full of sleeping people who do not want to wake up.

 

[anduin]

cannabis and especially working out. You can blow off so much steam and feel a little more relaxed after.

When I have a 100 things, all I can do is just work through them one step at a time. Panic & stress will only make it worse.

 

[texas409]

dealing with white folks and the sneaky shit that they try to pull on the job daily.

I drink, have sex, smoke hookah and buy things to relax
