what cause you stress?

stephtan

hi guys, i just want to know what make you stress? 

and what you do to relieve that stress?

i am so stressed when im in a noisy room, because i feel like i want to hear all the conversation there. and what i do is using headphone.

  • I am stressed by:

    Noise from outside my flat: neighbour's voice, music, people talking outside, car engines.

    Busy, crowded places, although I am becoming better at dealing with them through practice.

    Queus, and people standing too close to me.

    Not knowing what to expect.

    Sudden changes.

    No time to be alone.

    Unpredictable social encounters and situations.

    Worrying about doing the right thing.

    Not knowing how to do something.

    Misunderstanding other people.

    Organising myself.

    Shopping.

    Not knowing how to spend my time.

    Too much choice.

  • What stresses me:

    waiting;

    people not responding to communications such as phone messages and emails;

    people standing too close to me in queues;

    people brushing against me;

    smelly people;

    loud people;

    people who are stroppy with me;

    aggressive people;

    unpredictable people (which is just about everyone);

    too much pressure;

    driving;

    too much responsibility;

    too much going on at once around me;

    busy places;

    keeping others waiting;

    being confused by what people mean;

    meltdowns of my youngest;

    stress and rudeness of my eldest;

    my belongings being touched;

    my husband moving things from their proper place or putting them back in the wrong place;

    my husband being all jolly and stupid;

    problems coming up that I don't know what to do about;

    people misinterpreting what I said/meant;

    people having lots of expectations of me;

    things going wrong;

    ...there are probably an endless amount, I wish I knew how to de-stress.  I am too stressed and preoccupied to actually do the things that I know people do to destress.
