How can I relieve this stress?

I’ve been through a lot lately. With school, friends, family, it’s been really tough. My friends don’t understand me. I try to tell them things but they don’t take things as serious as I do. I’m handling things moe differently than last time. I’m more calm, but it’s hard to be calm.. In front of my friends it’s all fake smiles and “Yeh I’m fine.” I pretend to be storng cz I know that they need me. But when I need someone to lean on.. who do I go to? A relationship of a year has just faded and I’m really upset and just confused. How can I relieve this stress and feel better?

Answer #1

well I was really bad at handeling my stress I used to cut but I dont anymore … the best thing that I found that helps if finding someone that feels like you(a close friend or some random that you will never see face to face) and pour your guts out with whats on your mind you know what I mean? I am here if you need to talk I dont even have to answer I will just listen to what you need to say cause thats what you need you need someone to listen to you. no one listened to me and I could have killed myself so just talk and people will listen

Hey there. Well you’re going to have to confront all the problems that’s causing the stress eventually. It doesn’t have to be all at one time, pick on aspect focus on it and try to work on it and deal with it. Putting on the happy face in public will only make things worst in the long run because you aren’t being honest with yourself.

I’m sure there’s a lot going on, but losing someone you care about isn’t easy and the world doesn’t expect for you to pretend that you are fine and nothings happened. You need to find someone to talk to about the lost so you can being to move on.

As far as relieving stress I do a variety of things I listen to music, go gym for a while, you can take a walk and clear your head, try deep breath from your stomach. Do things you enjoy doing. I know you are there for everyone else, but sometimes we need to stop and take care of ourselves your more than worth it. Your friends can’t see that your hurting maybe you should have a talk with one that you feel the closet to. True friends are suppose to be there for each other, it’s easy to be there when times are go, but when thing get rough it tells you a lot. Hope everything works out for you.

Need to talk or vent feel free to fun mail me. Later.
