When frustrated - cry.
When lonely - read excellent poetry (Hafiz and Tagore always do it for me)
When overwhelmed - make lists.
When angry - go to the gym and lift more reps than necessary or run like crazy on the treadmill.
When worried or fearful about money, job, health - confront the fear.

I just know I have to make it through the day and I have to adjust my attitude. Got to do those things that are necessary to keep living a positive life.

Let's see....these are some of the things I do when I'm stressed.

Play the theme from Forrest Gump on the piano.
Clean something ferociously while yelling at everyone within sight.
Destroy something with a sledge hammer.
Hide in my room and watch Star Trek

Oh wait a minute....I bet you wanted suggestions on what people should do.
