Personally I get real mean to myself and call myself garbage. How about you?
Eating junk food mostly
Well we know what people do under stress and it’s a lot of bad shit.
What are some healthy coping mechanisms? Say a top 10.
I’m a fan of mindfulness and gratitude practice. Also, physical exercise! Nothing like working up a good sweat when I’m mad at myself to feel better after.
Get away and music bathe back to baseline
Do you like Huey Lewis & The News? Their early work was a little too ‘new-wave’ for my taste, but when ‘Sports’ came out in '83, I think they really came into their own – both commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He’s been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, ‘Fore’, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is ‘Hip to Be Square’, a song so catchy most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics – but they should! Because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it’s also a personal statement about the band itself!
It absolutely depends on the kind of stress and how much im feeling it
I get the strong urge to slam illicit opiates into my veins. But I can’t do that anymore so now I do dif breathing exercises.
Oh that’s so real. I’m like six years clean of opiates - it does get easier, but occasionally my veins get itchy when I get really stressed. Normally relationship stress.
Picking. I’m pretty compulsive about it. Can really fuck things up if I’m nervous about an upcoming social event, as I end up with a puckered face, making it worse. Idk why I do this, a lot of times I’m not really even conscious I’m doing it until after the fact.
Cannabis
Mine are all unhealthy but I think my stress is quite high. It was drinking way too much… not it’s having a drink with junk food, staying up late 报复熬夜, and being outwardly anxious
Fetal position and cry
I yell “BACK UP!” regardless of how close anyone might actually be to me.
Depends on the situation, initially usually anxiety or panic but again depends on the severity and how equipped I am for the response of the situation in question.
Masturbation.
Flight. But when flight is not an option, raised blood pressure
