How can you stop STRESS?!?

Best way is exercise.  Start with cardio if you haven't done it in a while and mix it up with weights once you think you can handle it.  Cut down on caffeine and sugar.  Cut down on alcohol.  Drink a lot of water and a lot of tea--tea with chamomile at night will help you to relax before bed (there is one out there called Sleepy Time by Celestial Seasonings--does the trick every night).\n\nPretty soon you'll feel better mentally and physically.\n\nYou can also get yourself a couple good jazz or classical CD's.  Check out the Hear Music compilations for a good mix if you aren't familiar with those genres.  Check out Afro Celt Sound System, too.  \n\nGet yourself hynotized by a professional.  It works wonders and it is relatively inexpensive.  A bunch of friends of mine have gone to a place in Chicago and the guy is top notch.  See link below.\n\nTry a yoga class.  Seriously.  Give it a shot.  Yoga is a great way to supplement a workout routine for the physical benefits and it's like a mini vacation every time you go.  \n\nLast but not least, talk to your doctor.  If you've got anxiety, he might be able to prescribe something like Xanax.  If your doc thinks you need a little extra help, he might send you to a psychologist or psychiatrist for a few sessions to see what's causing your stress.

i say that the best stress relief is exercise. i gets your mind off things and your doing something good for your body.something as simple as walking up and down the stairs for 5 min. is good enough. if you want to focus your brain on something you can listen to music. after you do this you feel better and more relaxed. yoga also works good too.

Take a small break, and try to focus your mind. Relax and think...things could've been worse. You decide what's on your mind and not the other way round :-)

Sorry to read of your stress.  Try some stress management techniques, especially before bed.  Some to try:\n1. Slow, deep breathing: inhale for a count of 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4. Do for 5 minutes several times per day.\n2. Visualization exercises\n3. Progressive muscle relaxation.\n4. Quiet music.\n(You can do an internet search for specific exercises for 2 & 3.)\nMedical school and nursing, in particular, have a stress component built in.  You have to be able to function with a lot of stress to be a physician or a nurse, so learning to cope with this is a necessary life skill.  The instructors tend to feel that a stressful learning environment will "weed out" the students who will not be effective in these professions, so this is an educational philosophy, rather than a personal issue.  I hope this helps, and wish you all the best as you pursue your goal...

Exercise is wonderful for releasing stress and relaxing....I love to run when I am stressed. Also just taking the time to breathe in and out deeply, can really make a big diffrence in your stress levels. ( try it the next time your are feeling stressed and overwhelmed)

Focus on your breathing.  Slow it down and take deep, rhythmic breaths in and out.  Just focus all your thoughts on the breathing and try to put all your other worries and thoughts out of your mind.\n\nYou can also try to mentally imagine each part of your body relaxing.  Relax your toes, then your calves, then your thighs, then your stomach...all the way up to your eyelids, ears, and forehead.  Just imagine each of those body parts relaxing, as you let go and let yourself get comfortable.\n\nAlso, I've found that if I am physically active and get exercise during the day, then I can sleep better at night.  You may also want to try drinking some herbal tea (Chamomile and Sleepytime work best at nighttime)

Best way to handle stress - distract and divert your attention to something of your interest. Yoga, music,medication(the last option),exercise helps but it all ends at one place "your mind". Your thinking,thoughts in short. Stress is different for different people and age groups and culture. If you are able to know that "this is what is causing stress for me" then i think the best option is to keep yourself occupied with others things - may be work, friends,shopping,cleaning,cooking something new,anything of your interest and even things that you have been wanting to do for a long time.\n\nSit and think what is bothering you. If it brings bad memories or making you sad then time to skip topics and turn around for better things.But ultimately to relieve yourself once for all of the stress - speak to an expert - may be a doc, a friend anyone whom you are comfortable with and who can understand you and your problem. This will also help in the long run.\n\nSo still then relax and learn to concentrate on things that you like and want to do - creatively.\nRemember one thing - There is nothing that is forever.Everything will change and even this will change.\n All the best.

Take a break for every 2hours ..let your mind relax and then start over. Relaxation could be like listening to soothing music, drink some water, take a small walk. The idea is that no one can read at a stretch, so read in intervals and reduce the heat by relaxing the mind..hope this helps

Depends on whats causing the stress. For example, if its work related then a chat with your boss or, more extreme, leaving for a new job, would help. You really have to sit and think whats making you stressed and deal with each thing individually. I was off work for 2 months last year following family problems as I just lost the plot (usually very laid back and easy going but suddenly snapped, yelled, threw stuff then broke down in tears all in my office), I went for some counselling and that put everything into perspective. Good luck.

You need to find motivation to do things and be happy.  If you are stressed, keep in mind that most of the things you are stressed about (work, school, gf/bf, etc...) will probably not be at all important to you in a month, maybe even in a week or tomorrow.\n\nWhat I do to prevent myself from being stressed is to think about what I just said, take a deep breath, and just relax. I don't know exactly what your situation is, but just remember that everything will turn out okay in the end(it always does) and try and look at the bigger picture.  Don't stress about the little things.\n\nAs for depression, maybe you're just feeling bummed about stuff because you don't want to do anything.  I always get depressed if  I end up staying in my house for prolonged periods of time.  So, even though you might not want to, get out of the house! Call up one of your friends that you haven't seen in a while and ask them to see a movie with you, or do something fun that you've never done before.  You might be depressed if you are just bored with your life.  So, go snowboarding (if there's snow where you are), try a weird ethnic restaurant, join a yoga or ballroom dancing class with a friend, even if you think it's ridiculous because you will still end up having a good time.  \n\nI hope this helps some.  If you're depressed, you can always email me to talk, I don't mind. Sometimes you just need someone who is willing to listen to what's going on in your life.  Good luck :)
