not very. I have the tendancy to keep it locked up inside me, where it masses til something happens and I blowup at someone.....it happens *shrug*
-
Better, once I found that I am overwhelmed, I pray and I am humbled and at peace again.
-
I keep it all inside and try to talk to someone about it before I burst. I do okay.
-
It all depends on my mood that day (and what situation causes the stress). Bad mood: I am not good at all at it and I let it out on other ppl. Good mood: I grow from the stress and learn from it and I'm satisfied with myself afterwards
-
Meh, I usually don't let things bother me. I can get pretty snappy around my office around Christmas though. That's usually when I have the most work to do, in the least amount of time. =)

Depends on the type of stress. I've been in life and death situations and handled them very well (I'm still here!). I basically have modes. Emotional lock down mode where I deal with crisis, Regular mode where I take day to day stress and blow it off, Relax mode where I let things go, and EXTREME BLOW OUT MODE where I let all of the tension release at once.

Pretty good. It's actually a motivator for me.
-
It don't bother me to much;) Not like it use too;) I usually walk away and take some deep breaths so I do not blow up or choke some one;) . . My definition of stress is when you want choke the living shit out of some one that desperatly deserves it;)*Laughing*(Just Kidding)

I am good at handling stress, sometimes, when I am not feeling well, I will get snappy, but I will warn you first, LOL.
-
Depends on the cause of the stress, if it's at work it seems easier to deal with because I realize that it's usually not personal and these people I have to work with every day whether I like them or not. Home is another matter....I expect my home to be my safe haven, my refuge, my soft place to rest and relax, if I get home and find a horrible mess and an irritable spouse I find it REALLY stressfull and VERY hard to deal with; I try and keep a low profile and pretty quiet until I have unwound and find my reserves of tolerance and patience coming back.

i don't know...all i know is that i keep myself busy...this is how i cope...now i don't know whether this is good or bad...
-
About this well, depending on my mood:
-
pretty good. for my first fifty years of life, i didnt know stress existed. i was in a gas station the other night, and i improperly reached for another customers change, when i thought it was mine. the guy said if we had been in Los Angeles, he would have killed me. My response, was, you are right. And he laughed and left. My best response to a verbal attack is to just agree with the attacker. it just cuts the stress into tiny pieces and it all evaporates.
-
Better than i used to be but not as good as i intend to be :)
-
I have had a TON of stress in my life, growing up. I guess it made me good at it, because now 40t years later, there is no stress in my life...when something dramatic or tragic happens, I feel bad, but I carry on.
-
I am excellent at dealing with stress, despite my adrenal problem, unless I'm a)hungry enough to be burning a hole in my stomach or b)headached. Then, just don't talk to me or you'll get flamed at. Of course, I usually try to warn people and control myself at those times. Sometimes that attempt is successful, but some other times it ends up in an EPIC fail.
