1: Drink. Every now and then I actually get drunk.
2: Smoke a bowl.
3: Meditate. Often I meditate on how much I’m enjoying being drunk or high.
4: A visit to peaceful outdoor setting.
5: Walking (though not if I’m drunk as it becomes stumbling).
6: Watch a comedy or drama about other people having problems.
7: Drink some more.

Drink alcohol. I don't get stressed often, but when I do, I have a couple beers, some wine, or maybe a couple shots of hard stuff. That said, my favorite, and most often practiced stress reliever is a nice, long mountainbike ride.

I go on a long bike ride.

I go to my farm and work on my tiny house or just do some repairs or cleaning up around the place. I keep in touch with the land from my formative period.

One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer!

Always think tomorrow will be a better day

Step back and regroup. Chill out. Watch something fun or mindless on TV. Write. Play games. Sing. Dance. Meditate. Cry. Sleep.

I don't get stressed to start with.
Not worth it.

Bike and write. Not necessarily in that order. And crying sometimes really does help.

Read, go for a walk. Reading is like meditating for me. It takes me away from the stress. Walking, not so much. I'm still thinking about the situation but it gets the blood flowing, and hopefuuly, some will reach my brain so I can figure out what needs to be done.

The most sensible thing I do is meditate. But mostly it is vast consumption of wine and chocolate

Go out and pull weeds! OK, I'll give myself a few minutes to indulge in the panic, but then it's figuring out 1) What is the real problem? 2) Can I do anything about it? 3) Should I be involved? 4) Is it possible/practical/desirable for me to do so? 5) Will my efforts be welcomed, or can I make a positive difference? If I can make a difference with action, I will act. But it requires those minutes of calming, thinking, planning, and evaluating before proceeding to the action.

Play uke, get back to nature.

Scream.

Drink some beers!

Run around the room with my arms flailing about in the air screaming, "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"

Eat. Complain a lot.

I don't get stressed out.

I go to teh beach, just a walk, usually a swin, or at the very leat jump in the pool, the colder the better. That big wake up seems to ease the stress.

step back from whats stressing me and do something else.

Play guitar. Helps me focus.

Ride my Harley

It really depends on how stressed out I am. I will cry, exercise, or go get ice cream. I always regret getting the ice cream, and honestly the exercise always makes me feel the best.

Remember that I am not dependent of any vice, retired in good health, divorced for 18 years, with enough pensions and not enough caring to gives a fuck to the point of stressing me out.
