How Do You Handle Stress?

We all get loaded down sometimes. It could be friends (argh) or academics (argh) family matters, or whatever may come your way. How do you handle it?

Right now, I think I'm going for a loooong walk around the neighborhood. Listening to music and posting on PPT helps, too, as does reading and talking to certain people.

I play the piano. Beethoven's Sonata Pathetique (first movement) is the single best song for de-stressing that I have come across, ever.

I meditate to get rid of stress.

I listen to music, there are 2 people who I could talk to about it, and I come on PPT, those all help.

When i get stressed I tend to clean my room. Im weird I know. I don't know why, but it just makes me feel better once Im done.

There's one person that I can talk to ANYTHING about, and that can make me forget about feeling stressed or whatever, but I havnt had the chance to for a while.

So i just resort to the cleaning

I don't either, I'm rarely stressed out to my limit

I punch my sister. Oh, you're serious? While this might scare some people I usually go play James Bond Nightfire and kill some people. Don't worry, I won't ever really shoot somebody.

It all depends on what's stressing me, and how much it's stressing me.

I do some gardening. I have two catnip plants that I plan to harvest from and make cat toys from whatever I get.

First I cry (I'm so weird...before I was 13, I didn't cry AT ALL. Now I cry a lot whenever I'm frustrated.

), then go on a LOOOOOOOOONG run (45 minutes-1 hour). Then I watch my favorite TV shows, talk to my mom. Then I'm ready to go.

Three words:
Ice cream, chocolate, Photoshop.

Crud. That was four, wasn't it.

Play video games, sleep, watch some Naruto, and something else that I guess shouldn't be mentioned here.
