A question they asked me on my first day of Psychology 101 was this: How do you alleviate stress? What do you do that calms your nerves? You can be as open and honest as you like. |

Hmmm... I eat chocolate lol
Pretty bad habit really. Chocolate acts like a cigarette for me so when I get stressed, I crave for it badly. And when I have some, I feel better
But lets see... If I don't have chocolate handy I try thinking through what the situation is and try only focusing on little bits of it so it doesn't seem as much of a big deal that I assume it is... If that makes any sense.

Frankly, it's best to take your mind off of things. After the initial response, if you have the control to direct your mind towards other thoughts, then it can go away. Unless it's something really important. I don't get stressed out much. I suppose I resist stress nowadays and just go with it. You live longer that way, unless you choose to relax over the wrong thing and end up hurting yourself. There technically is a good reason why stress exists; we just have to decide for which circumstances they are appropriate to respond to. And for those with bad panic disorders, cognitive-behavior therapy might work.

Well, the first thing I do is chew my fingernails. And the second thing. And the third thing. It's extremely unhealthy, I know, but I've been doing it since I was a kid. I also listen to music though. Music seems to calm me down and get me into a groove. As long as I can get something to focus on and do that will alleviate the stress, I'm usually fine. It's really hard to calm down when stress is mixed with anger, for me. I just have a hard time with it. |

Music is good. But I have a temper. Neon and Nell can easily vouch for me on that one. So unleashing thy temper is the best way for me. And writing. Hey, FO. I'm also writing a book. I'm turning Holy Invasion into a novel at the moment. Though I need to go make some alterations. I've noticed a few things I messed up on.Thank God for college English. -_- |

fix'd 4 u qtpai No, just kidding. I really don't care what music you listen to. I just thought it'd be funny to try out some of the crap I've found on other forums. Oh yeah, and reading humorous posts on forums, btw, also helps me relieve stress. |

Playing games helps me relieve stress... So long as I'm playing a game I know I can win
Otherwise if I'm losing it will get me stressed out more lol. But playing fight games like Soul Calibur or Dynasty Warriors helps me out

[/thread] Seriously, rock on. Who's your favorite character? And actually, Soul Calibur III makes me angry sometimes simply because of its extreme difficulty and the fact that even after weeks of playing it I haven't been able to get every single weapon yet (as a perfectionist, this drives me crazy!) I'm very competitive...D: |

That goddamn Chronicles of the Sword is on my last fucking nerve!
I'm at the last battle area, battling that guy in his castle. You can't regenerate your health or other people, so it's basically play as you go. You lose a person, suck it up. SCIII is the most frustrating game I've ever played, I think. I thought San Andreas was bad... oh no no no. Anyways... writing and ranting helps me relieve stress, I noticed. And being able to talk to Nell for hours. That's always nice. *nods* |

Oh, yeah, that last one's tough. You seriously have to have all of your guys at about level 60 or 70 in order to take Strife out as well as having one of your dudes equip the "Soul of" your best standard character. Mine happens to be Xianghua, but I'm also decent as Cassandra, Seong Mi-Na, Maxi and Yun-Seong. It's funny, cause I've ended up coming up with nicknames for a lot of the characters (i.e. Xianghua = X, Maxi = Machine, Siegfried = Siggy, Cassandra = Cassie). Oh, and DM, good luck getting to Night Terror and getting The Ancient for every character. The only character I've done both of those with is Xianghua (because of her quick A-A-B combo I can spam it for cheap counters against the comp, lol). I'm getting off topic, aren't I? |

Meh, don't worry about it. It sort of deals with the issue at hand, in a way.
SCIII is a stressful game. Curse those damned creators.

Does anybody like to burn things? I have a handy propane torch I like to use. Hahaha. I mean, under a controlled environment, of course. I don't really know what it is about it, but it's really fun and relaxing. Of course, if you are too relaxed, then, you know, you can get into some serious trouble with an open flame, but you know what I mean. XD Actually, the torch is used for the creme brulee stuff. But you can use it for other things, too. Cooking is also stress-relieving to some people, like me. And some people get really stressed out over it, so perhaps it's not for everyone. Hahaha. |

Cooking is okay, I guess. As far as a stress reliever goes. Though I can cook, I'm not into the whole culinary thing. If I can get away with not cooking, so be it. ![]() I like fire. Burning stuff is always nice. |
