it just depends. I'm divorced. My ex wife left me for a waaaaaaaay older guy, like phizer dependent old. The stress that came from that was unreal. all the bullshit. I'm proud to say I'm freaking buff as hell, like tobey buff from the first spiderman. thats how I got rid of that stress. Now I take a grappling class. Kicking someones ass or getting your ass kicked kind of takes your mind off the other silly shit. When you have some freaking giant about to stomp your ass, all the other stuff seems petty. Meditation doesn't really help, I use to think it did, but it really just complicates things. I start to feel connected to everyone and like the weight of the world is on my shoulders. Like I'm not doing enough to help the people around me, so people don't meditate, smoke dope and hang out with hookers.
I handle stress pretty well. But, there are always those new challenges that we face from time to time that bring out an all new reaction. For me, it was being a Police Officer in the New Orleans area during Hurricane Katrina. I survived, but it temporarily brought a new side of me that I don't ever want to see come out again. All due to stress.
Some people think I'm crazy, but when I'm particularly stressed out I sometimes even get bouts of giggles. I look at it like this....nothing short of death or serious illness or some terrible tragedy is really worth stressing over that much. It's better to crack jokes and try to take the lighter outlook, or things are only bound to get worse.

It depends on the circumstance. Am I in a plane that's hurtling towards the ground or going into an important job interview.
Different circumstances, different stress.

or like a total drama queen.. i try to tone it down.. but sometimes it doesn't work.. it really depends on the situation..
i try not to be such a pain in the ass about things either..
I overly dramatic.
Some say it's my love for acting, some say I'm just plain silly... and laugh at me while I'm making everything worse then they actually are. I burnt my hand at work, and I was calm (for once!) and then I had to fill out this form... And that's when I fell into my huge dramatization. "What if I fill it out wrong?! What if they fire me!!?? Can they?? but what if they do!!"
crazy but i do...its a complete nightmare but here comes your miss stressed out drama queen...hehe....on a more serious note.......i freak out on the little things and laugh a the big.....most of the time important things...but God always helps out .....very cool poll Allison

How I react to stress depends on what's causing it. I can either become a total bitch and yell and moan and everyone near me at the moment will feel the heat of my wrath :P Or I'm in chill mode and think nothing of it and come with a solution to whatever I'm having problems with or what's causing my stress.

My reaction to stress definitely depends on what hits me. Although, I have found that if my husband starts freaking out about something, then I'll calm down and be the voice of reason.
i try not to show any kind of emotion when it comes to stress. i bottle things up and when i feel like i'm about to blow well.......that's what video games and books are for.

I think that for the most part I'm consistent with some moments of pure "drama queen" where I don't think before I react. I have three children ranging in ages from 7 to 21 months. So sometimes I don't have time to think. I try to keep a level head as much as possible to set a good example for my children.

Sometimes it's funny to watch people over dramatize. So as long as you have an audience who enjoys watching others stress, you could be cheering up lost souls lol

If it has to do with finances that I don't have, I freak out, big time. OTHERWISE if its any other regular ol' stressor, I'm usually the one to organize things and make it all better. I don't know, finances make me rock, suck my thumb, and say "mommy".

The smallest thing could set me off or the biggest thing I could deal with calmly. It really depends on my current mood, and how bad the day has been. In general I'm calm and laid-back.
