Thread: Dealing with high stess/anxiety

What techniques, medicines, stress relieving activities do you guys use to help calm down in high stress work environments. I have been having trouble sleeping as I am have been stressed about a huge potential client I have been working with for almost a month. I'm sure everyone has had these problems before, so what has helped you in the past?

magnesium taurate, seriously works wonders!

Exercise.

music is always a good remedy

Genostim GS-6 - Beyond Supplements Look Young Feel Young

a couple of my friends swear by it.

Meditation! It sounds like a completely typical answer but I owe my sanity to it.

Provigil... Need a prescription for it. Not gonna help you sleep but supposively helps you focus and think more clearly. It is what the movie limitless was based on. Here is a write up that I am sure was posted before.

I am not a doctor and not recommending this stuff to anyone just information. And please don't ask "where I can get this stuff?" because won't say. There are also other mental aids that act on the same premise but are classified as a supplement. Many people actually need this drug to cope with narcolepsy, the stress of "shift work" or other related stressors, but that is a conversation for you and your doctor. I will not get into any more detail but the research can be done pretty easily if you are so inclined.

yoga

i second the music. that and the light at the end of the tunnel. in other words, what you are working for.

Rhodiola... and exercise.... more for panic attack type stuff than just anxiety and stress...
