When you want to de-stress?

I normally drive, usual trip is about 150miles down some epic roads to drive on beach :D costly way to de-stress but works wonders.

If I can't afford to do that its go down my local lanes and park somewhere for a few hours in the dark with the stereo on full, or just boot car round lanes listening to its engine.

I usually go to my workshop and mess around with one of the cars. Or if I'm really stressed I sometimes have a spliff. Naughty I know but always works!

I tackle whatever it is that is stressing me until it's not something that can cause me stress anymore... or if that isn't possible, I go to bed or watch a film or listen to some music and just try to relax and not think about anything...

I just keep draining the water and topping up with hot. Also usually have my music on at the same time or read a book.

And yeah my fingertips do go a bit wrinkly... but not the rest of me! Haha. :y:

I've tried that but just get told if I drive like a nutcase I'll end up hurting someone or myself, I often do it but only when it's safe to do so. I hate not having my car :(

I just take me mums sometimes she always leaves the keys about (yes I'm insured on it)

i masturbate until i hurt.


Only joking-ish.
There's a big grassy hill on some farmers land about half a mile from my house. In the summer i go up there and relax for a bit. Maybe bring one of those portable bbq's.

If that doesn't work i go anywhere with my friends and they soon take my mind off it.

Get in the car, grab some smokes and go find somewhere to chill away from anyone.

Or, go to the gym and do weights.

Either of those normally work

I never get stressed, I go to the gym or MMA training pretty much everynight of the week so I guess it is pro-active!! Keeps me constantly stress free!

I don't have all that much to be stressed about though, good job, no debt, healthy family and friends, good company etc!! And go out when I please and can treat myself etc...

The odd uni deadline/bad day at work never stresses me out, lifes too important to worry about such things, just do them lol..

Worries me how many people go for a drive when angry/stressed on here... you realise you're most likely to crash under that sort of mental strain?

Not strictly true though IMO, I'm just as likely to snap when I'm indoors, when I'm out in the car I still realise that I have a responsibility and it's not just my life i'm playing with at the end of the day. I like to think we're all not entirely stupid as to go out with no regard for anyone / anything else on the road?

I agree, go to the gym ftw you actually achieve something as well when you hit a PB due to the increased aggression in a rep :P

I drove when stressed before and made stupid mistakes, no accidents but just takes you off the ball smetimes if you are properly stressed... not just some little paddy/mardy which most people think is stress...

Hitting the weights usually helps

lifting them generally helps me.
im sure hitting them would only hurt my knuckles.

Yeah, just crash into someone and injure them instead :y:

You aren't gonna knife anyone, nobody on here is going to knife anyone, what a stupid comment.

@sr666, the vast majority of people will be driving without their full concentration as they are stressed, I'm not gonna argue that there are a few exceptions, I'm sure there are a few exceptions that some people can drive perfectly fine after a few drinks, but it's still stupid. Point is, when you're stressed and angry, you aren't thinking rationally and your decision making abilities deteriorate, you are more easily wound up (and lets face it, everyone gets wound up by other drivers) which could easily escalate, especially if you were already in a bad mood. It's just not a good idea.

The most likely thing I'd kill in the car is a bluddy bunny rabbit, even flat out round the lanes near my house there is nothing and no one out there.

In general if I'm pissed off I have more attention on driving more so than when I'm just lala'ing to town or something, as I want to drive and I'm driving for a reason my mind is 100% on driving hence making me feel better :D

Lie on my sette,shut my eyes and listen to my ipod(mumford and sons works well lately). I used to go for a drive to de-stress,probably why i have 12 points. Or if i really need to clear my head i do what every guy does, Its amazing how your head clears after you cheat on yourself. Very stressed lately.

Paul
16th November 2010, 20:19
Cock size? 3" on erect, but i ejaculate prematurely so my little man soon shrinks down to a 1". So 3" for a few seconds, then 1", imagine a baby turtle popping his head out of his shell, spitting, then shrinking back inside.
Bank balance? Loaded
Are you good looking? I'm not sure, you can be the judge of that.
