How the hell do you deal with stress without throwing something down your gob.

step back and look at your thinking process.

to my mind, stress comes from thinking about ones own self, by directing your thoughts towards benefiting others, you can instantly over come stressful feelings.

forget the pills, they are harmful, dull your mind so becomes harder to see a way out

discipline your thinking process

Totally agree rob thumbs up


We can train our minds to deal with stress and in doing so, develop resilience and, along the way, peace.

With the ordeals that have affected my life over the past few weeks, I've found (as I have on previous occasions) that my compassion for others in similar, or even worse, situations has grown even stronger.

Yep.. the whole world is full of stress, but its the way that you view your life, that can or not make it stressful... If you are happy with what you have... then that's one thing..cartwheel

If you are not happy with what you have... change it... and if you cannot... accept it..

I've made the Serenity Prayer my creed of late lol...

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

There is a certain commitment one should make to family,but the biggest commitment you should make is to yourself.I have been through the ringer with family and the more I gave the more was wanted. Not entirely sure of your situation but I recon you might need to take care of yourself before others wave

my motto is only worry about the things you have control over to change, anything else is someone elses stress, you dont need to take it on.

I always find that when things seems to be getting too much to leave the phone at home and go for a walk, keep walking until either you have left what ever was troubling you behind or... you know damn well you have to be able to walk home again..

Family is always the worst kind of stress,... cant live with em, cant live without em.

hope you find a way of controlling your stress level soon

I found out many years ago that stress is not the ever ending circle people talk about. Circles/problems/issues can only get bigger. It is in reality an outwardly expanding spiral and these spirals keep expanding and little problems become major stresses in our lives.

One needs to find a turning point in the spiral where one realises that those problems are not really so large, don't need to get any larger, and that the spiral needs to work inwards until the realisation is there that these are not really so much of a problem and little things will work to rid one of these simple little problems.

That would depend on what your stressed about?

Unless its life threatening?

What do you really need to worry about?

I find people make demands on themselves that are really pointless? When they are young only to find that they will get what they want in time, the powers off positive thought are far better than doubting yourself before you begin?

You only get the one life! So how do you want too live?

You and only you control your every thought,

Does not matter what any one does or says to you it is your own reaction/reactions that cause the stress.

If you sit back and think about your stresses you will more than likely realise how minuscule they really are.
