    Qotd

    How do you de-stress when you have had an incredibly challenging day?
    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you'll be a mile from them, and you'll have their shoes.

    well, theres always the stiff shot.drink option, but its not the best one.

    luckily, those days happen to be days when i can play basketball of volleyball, and that helps. nothing like beating someone in a sport to feel good. that and music, lots of music

    Each religion has got their own way of making you feel like a victim. The Christians say 'you are a sinner', and you better just zip up your trousers and give the money to the pope and we'll give you a room up in the hotel in the sky.

    Go to the gym and workout hard. It's difficult for me to stay upset/stressed through a hard hour long workout.

    Sometimes I kick back and enjoy some brews. Other times, I workout.

    I don't mean to put a potty post up, but a good round of naked two-stepping also works.

    -drink a couple of icy cold beers
    -talk it out with my best friend
    -and i agree with the others about working out. it's a great de-stressor. after a good workout i feel euphoric.

    The more stressed I am, the faster the treadmill turns

    Certain types of music do the trick. I prefer to close the office door, turn things up (a bit), lean back in the chair, close my eyes and relax...

    A bath, and then curling up in bed with the remote, and doing nothing.
    Have a groovy day!

    I recommend a dart board also in addition to everyone else said.

    I read to relax.

    When I'm extra stressed I ask/tell my son (he's 10) to let me just breathe for 10 minutes. I then stretch out on my bed (on my back) and I close my eyes and think of nothing. Just relax.

    But for the most part, when I'm just a little stressed I read.
