We all experience stress and anger at some stage in our lives. Sometimes, just for a few moments, and other times for days and days.

How do you cope with it? What is your stress relief? Does it always work? Do you turn to friends for support, or family, or blast music or go to the gym?

Please take a moment to help some of your fellow members by sharing what works for you, it might help some people!

This is going to be a new sticky in the Teen Stress & Anger Management forum.

I just deal, I usually break out like freaking crap though...
but I like to chat with family (more along the lines of cousins) about nothing, everything, life, dreams... crap like that
And then I'll go for a nice long drive with a really good mixed CD playing... reading also works, takes me out of my life and puts me in someone elses

There are many ways I cope with stress, mainly it is keeping busy and deep thought.

I have two jobs, am working on getting enrolled into university, and  am going for auditions for a musical.

However, sometimes things build up, I end up an emotional wreck, which sometimes I'll come onto LiveWire to explain. I usually use LiveWire to fill up the empty spaces of time because it is entertaining. I also play video games for that reason.

I often find that many people just need to find something that they like and can creatively pursue such as art, writing, music. Anything that can let them vent out their anger and frustration towards a world and also let them keep it as a memory.

obsessing, throwing myself at my homework or any other problem that presents.  (I ended up writing a 30 page english analysis that was supposed to be 3 last time I was in a particularly stressful scenario.)

talking to friends, or just holding a (particular, special =p) friend.

occasionally, drugs.

I listen to some good music, and I play it really loud.  I talk it out with my friends.  I go and do some exercise.  Or I write in my blog, that helps too.

I like to sleep it off. I have this bad habit of clenching my teeth, and it's messing up my jaw.

I use religion to help my stress, I either pray, meditate or get spirtaul advice from anywhere from preists sharmens whatever. My other options are go for a walk or listen to music which helps but religion is better.

Yell, cry, become the most sensitive person you'll ever meet.

I tend to keep my feelings bottled up and my mom often has no clue unless I start bitching her out.  Then she knows something's up.  But, when she asks I usually yell at her.

I feel bad when i do it but... those are my only ways of coping.

I get stressed out a lot, since I have a ton of things going on. But I usually try to tackle what is stressing me out, if it's a homework project, getting something done on time, whatever. Or I try to get some of it done, so that I can feel a little more relaxed. I also like writing my feelings down. I have notebooks of these things, just little random paragraphs when I feel stressed. Depending on the weather, I'll go out and run for a while. That can help clear my mind for a while. =)
