How Can I Get Rid of Stress?

[Mark Z]

I've been really stressed lately, and maybe there are ways to get rid of it, or put the level of stress down

[kesmund]

list all your problems on a bit of paper then try and deal with them one by one over as much time as it takes . You got to take a step to walk a mile

Exercise is very helpful for most people. Reading, meditation, thinking about others and taking your mind off your own problems.

Rhodiola Rosea (Siberian Golden Root) is an adaptogen which means that it helps the body recover from, and adapt to, stress. 5htp has also helped me to calm down a lot. Take 50-100mg last thing at night with a carbo snack or some milk. Helps with sleeping problems too. You can find both at health food stores or over the 'net.

Ive noticed that finances are the biggest part of stress in most peoples lives.Exercise is the greatest releiver of stress. And yes sex is a great form of exercise. Hopefully you have a mate to accomidate you. Otherwise a good run, swim, or bikeride will suffice.If you are or arent religious a prayer can help. Most of all just take a moment to get away from that stress. Drinking and recreational drugs only compound stress so stay away from them.If family is stressing you, you need to take them all out for some fun.If job is then time for a vacation or take a couple days off with your weekend. Also remember not to let boss pressure stress you out. It is only a tactic to get more out of you, dont take it personally.
