I was wondering if any pixies have any advice or suggestions for stress management. I'm coming into the final stage of my GD education, and the pressure is on to come up with a spectacular portfolio. Plus I'm moving soon and need to come up with the money to do so and find a place to live where I'm moving to. And on top of all that I'm waiting to see if I should be expecting an enormous change in my life any time soon. I should know about that within the next week, but until then, does anyone have any suggestions on how to maintain an even temper and not be overly-emotional right now? I'm probably driving my poor friend nuts with all the ups and downs I've been going through lately. =( any help would be greatly appreciated!

laugh at the absurdity of life ... enjoy that things are happening and ... my motto in life for the last couple of years .... "Life's an adventure!" When you see it as an adventure, it helps your perspective ... at least it does with mine, even the hard things take on a kind of fun or expectant feel. Mostly, remember the things that bless your life ... like that friend who is there for you!

What I wouldn't give to have that right now lol =)



I'm trying my hardest not to let everything get me down, it's just those times when life seems so pointless that it really hits me. I'm super-excited to be moving and all that, since it's to a city and country I've never really been to before. It's upser scary though, and I'm just starting to wonder if I'm making a good decision you know? But I can see your point about the blessing, he is. A very big one which I probably overlook most of the time because I'm so used to him always being there.

Thanks you guys =) *hugs to OF and fzzy*

Things happen for a reason...... be they good or bad. Just keep that in the back of your mind and the ups & downs will even out slightly. Moving on to the next stage in life is always exciting and scary because you're moving away from your comfort zone. Enjoy the ride! Besides, you probably thought being a college freshman was scary at one time!

Look for something you enjoy doing as soon as you get to your new location... be it waitressing, bartending etc..... and make new friends........ Good Luck and don't forget to come see us here!

To manage stress, I do a few things (some of which might appeal to you):
* Take long walks by myself, or with a friend to chat with
* Go to the gym and sweat it off
* Read an escapist novel
* Take baths

This sounds crazy, but I took up golf. Golf taught me to manage my emotions and stress and lot let them manage me.
