Stress doesn’t usually get to me but when it does I become irrational , thoughtless and quick tempered. Which is the complete opposite to my typical rational, thistles and level headed self.

If it’s particularly stressful I do tend to resort to wine. But it works because I so rarely get stressed.
Long bike ride on the beach to, or a scolding hot shower. Or an ice bath. Depends on the stress hahaha

Meditation and tai chi

I don’t deal with it at all.

Exercise always helps me, even if it’s just a walk, with my music blaring in my ears.

Not very well hahahaha. If I'm at home and feeling a bit stressed/overwhelmed I love a hot shower. I sit down, play some music and just shut my eyes for 10 mins. That instantly calms me down.

Smoke a joint

Self care is so important. If you practice it regularly it will help you keep stress levels down. I exercise, play piano, walk with a friend, and learn languages, hot bath with scented candle and yoga music.
When not in Covid restrictions I regularly get nails, hair and eyelashes done and facials.

I have tried meditation on and off. It helps but I never stick to it. I also like being very organised to keep the pressure down.
