I know it’s going to sound like I’m a guy with a fake pink acct, but… Masturbation! Unfortunately I have been a prolific masturbator ever since I was sexually abused, and raped on my 13th birthday by my uncle! He would go down on me and use his mouth to give me an orgasm! He believed that it would make be believe that everything was my fault if I “enjoyed” the very last thing he did to me. Well as much as I loved the feeling of it, having your dad’s twin brother between your legs with his mouth on your privates, is a LOT of things… “enjoyable” is NOT one of them! Fucked-up, disgusting, terrifying, nightmare inducing, and so much more, it’s all of those, but it is most assuredly NOT enjoyable! However, I did begin craving orgasms once he was arrested! The thing is I had no idea how to do that to myself, but hello, internet? It doesn’t really take long to find out, and I began masturbating two or three times in a row, and did that three times a day, so I was rubbing TEN out a day almost and predictably I got several UTI’s, so mom the doctor immediately knew what I was doing, and was unbelievably understanding. She taught me proper hand washing techniques, and bought me a tiny lipstick vibrator and using it on her fingertip, and showing me the light pressure thats needed on my fingertip I was OFF!
I’m all grown-up now, but I still masturbate to relieve stress, as well as that, I always do it right before I go to bed, and when I wake up in the morning!
I honestly don't get "stressed", if something is difficult I quit immediately I do not care. But I do get like stressed in social situations but there is not rlly anything I can do except suffer... like i was in the ice cream line yesterday and I don't know what it is about some people but they stand way to close and I was like inching forward but they kept inching up too and the line wasn't moving it was just me and I was like screaming in my head for no reason ugh
#1 Avoid it in the first place
#2 Exercise - it's a wonder drug. It saves more lives than penicillin and all the other drugs combined.
When I did construction work I had zero stress. I burned it off before it ever had a chance to take hold. When I worked in an office I had stress all the time. The nature of the work itself was stressful, plus lack of a way to burn it off.
I'm sure you know that drinking to deal with stress is super dangerous. It might work to get rid of stress, but there is a really nasty downside. Stick to the walking, the car rides and the crying. If you are going to drink, please don't do it as a drug to deal with life.
I was a smoker so I dealt with it by smoking… and this only damaged me and gave me more stress. So I quit it.
I was also a drinker when I was young. I’m a very controlling and rigid person and this caused me a lot of stress, but drinking allowed me free myself. Getting drunk let me put aside morals, formalities, tidiness… but it was really wrong for my physique and my reputation. So I quit it too.
Nowadays I deal daily with stress, I just take some relaxation exercises (long breaths, a bit of apnea… in order to calm heartbeat), I take walks and I try to vent my anger with trusting friends.

Stress is something we all inevitably experience in our lives... Others experience it rarely but others quite frequently and intensly. The latter was my case this year. The year that passed was a very demanding year cause I had to sit the most important exams in my life...
I came up with a few effective ways to not let stress destroy everything. Firstly, I accepted the fact that I was stressed. I know many people try to erase their negative thoughts and feelings, but human mind does not erase anything, in fact it multiples everything we struggle to vanish. I also took up physical activity and especially yoga that made me be more peaceful and mindful. And of course whenever things were really bad, I would share my sorrows with my beloved ones cause they are always there to take the burden off my shoulders and support me in all possible ways :)
By not getting stressed.
It's like my old mate from way back was bitching about.
I told her to never use the word "stress" and never get herself into situations without thinking her way out of it, if required, first.
She's never been happier since, and turned her life and career around.
Most people become psychosomatic over time. Especially when they read and see a lot of bullshit telling them what is "wrong" with them and what shit they should buy to "fix" it. It's basically a marketing tactic as nervous people buy more shit and are easier to control.
Is it a solvable problem?
Find a new job
Dump unsupportive partner
Avoid stressful people
Hang out with fun people
If it's a not solvable problem:
Drink wine
Cook something delicious
Listen to rage music
Movie or video game marathon
A drink and a cigarette to chill. Stress doesn't affect me like it used to and I've learned that nothing is as bad as it seems and can be worked out. It is what it is.
In my line of work a thousand things we know about can still go wrong and another thousand new challenges. If I let it affect me I'd be a raging alcoholic lol
Take a step back. It's gone. Tomorrow will be better.
Walk away until you can understand it. (it’s what I do anyways).
Stressful things to us can be the most idiotic or most problematic. Understand why they’re being idiots, and understand how to find a solution.
Thinking (which I can conclude from the responses from my clarity question) is the most productive/ progressive/ efficient when we are at our calmest.
Removing yourself from the stressor isn’t idiotic, if you can’t logically remove the stressor itself.
Watch Porn, Go to the casino or blast music
I don't know really. I’m just cruising through life rn idgaf if I crash 💥
As I have gotten older and had and beat cancer…. Dealing with stress is relatively easy….
Stress is generally self induced. Relax…. Understand your situation (s) and only be concerned with things you have control of. Everything else is just noise…have a plan and deal with it if it becomes real.
if I do get stressed, I do a few thing…. get intimate with your partner (or just spend time doing something), work on a hobby and/or have a few adult beverages with friends.
I honestly think I have anxiety but never went to someone to confirm it. I just use tips from people online. Breathing techniques, certain yoga poses, avoiding certain habits and talking to my friends all help.
I stress constantly. On a weekend, I drive or sleep. If I'm too overstimulated, I'll grow tired and will need to sleep immediately. On a weekday or when I have no choice but to stay alert and awake, I put on music and keep my mind preoccupied with anything but the thought of passing out.
I watch porn or start trying to find women to sext/swap nudes with. Occasionally I'll stress eat or watch something funny/light. but for the most part my biggest go to for stress relief is porn or sexting
ride my bike, go jogging, watch Netflix, smoke, sleep, or just anything to distract myself. i also can be bit of a bitch to people in the moment, so i try not to talk to anyone when stressed
Here's my stress my 42 year old son is bipolar and schizophrenia and I due to long term covid no has me high risk to die in the last 6 days I had 3 terminal asthma attacks that also 2 times is stores where I got brain fog then vision went all white and was seconds to death before I said something abs came out and a customer in store said to me are you all right then one time where right lung stop working and the sac fell down.
Now how to I handle stress, really through God trusting God
I face the situation and think about solutions. Generally if it’s very bad I cry and if there’s nothing I can do I accept the situation once I have exhausted all my options.
My family are natural problem solvers. They get it out of me. Then they distract me. Much better than having a crutch. Riding is a good second though.
I would not drink wine since it’s bad for your health, try eating dried broad beans to relieve stress. They are addictive and less fattening.
Sleep, hitting the wall or anything beside me, panic, Thinking about scenarios, masturbate 😭🤣 or having sex with husband 🦦
Jeg er godt, det gars fordi jeg har mit hund, hun elsker mig og laver mit glad
