Recently I developed a bad habit... when I very stressed at work... I will work up a running pace and kick the nearest storage box I find lying around my office.

Use my method.Originally posted by Xavier:Bo gf how? -
when I used to be in the Ang Mo Kio office ... there's a 4th level ... sort of the roof top ..... very hot in the afternoon ... but still ....
when me not happy with work or with relationship .... i will go up there and YELL !!!! .....
I will cry and look afar where my mother's company is .... (10 mins' walk) .... and cry even more ....
now in the Woodlands office ... no roof top ... so I go to the toilet .. and shout or hit the walls with my hands ... until I feel pain ... then I stop .... sadistic huh???
-
Siao!
-
Try putting your head into the bowl and scream... it helps (only if the toilet is clean).
-
normally i hide in wash room n cry
or go to one corner where there's nobody to do some deep breathing...
if not leh i go make coffee or milo to drink or drink plenty of h2o...
or else i play "Canon" during lunchtime n plug in my ear phone, turn up the volume n either work or surf net or lay on table n rest
after work i will either go home sleep or go buy my favourite food to makan to pacify myself
-
Hmmm...

Joy u are not siao
u are like me Eccentric -
[color=green]Good way to relax...hmmm when i want to relax i either a) play online games....b)shut myself in the room and read a book or magazine...c) or I will take a slow walk around the estate...best walk along th sea, feel the breeze and the sea water.....so nice and relaxing......
but if i am in the office, i would walk away from my desk for awhile, go out have a breather and keep cool...or go to the toilet to wash up abit, before tackling the work stress again. Just went for a course....best is to have self-talk....prep yourself up..that way you would not feel so stressed out. -
jAnY sweetie .... yup yup ... the word has been used on ME many times by some schoolmates ... can find it in my autograph book ...
ask u people horr ... do u talk to urself while at work? I do leh .... even when me buay song with colleagues from other department ... I will say it out .... bad attitude ... 1 day will get "pink form" from superior ... hahahaha
funnie thing leh ... if I keep quiet for whole day ... no complaints no grumble ... my dept colleagues will find it weird or something missing ...
p/s: a pink form describes the "crime" a person has commited in the office. the person will have his/her service terminated by the company. -
Joy u r not alone
i do alot of self-talk during work, during class, self-study, at home and even when i m wid my dearie....
self-talk is just thinking out loud and it can be done unconsciously...
-
i think more women do self talk then men.... dont worry i also talk to myself one when i buay song i also grumble..when study cannot get ans will talk to myself to c where i go wrong...sometimes my frends here me say i study until siao but i guess if u r like that it is better to talk then keep quiet.
i like to self talk seem like i can analysis the situation better and convince myself what to do next. when i really got prob cannot solve i will go swim n self talk usually works for me
men think talking to oneself a bit funny some times they think we siao
-
[color=blue]Not siao IceIce...this is very normal...like what Jany and Joy said, when we are unhappy we tend to do grumble out loud...sometimes unconciously....this is very normal for gals....When I am angry or frustrated, I will talk to myself infront of the computer or grumble....my colleagues are already used to it..sometimes they themselves do it also...anyway this is a good way to let out frustrations and also stress...
-
Ladies... the process is called Thinking out loud.
-

How Is Stress Affecting Your Relationship?
Stress may be affecting your relationship without you even being aware of it. How many times have you verbally snapped at your partner for no apparent reason? Or, how often have you felt an unjustified strain in your relationship? If you're up for a promotion, trying to get a new job or house, in school, or just plain too busy, you're more than likely experiencing a good amount of stress. So, just how does this affect your relationship?
If not recognized as the source of your frustration it could be easy to take things out on your partner. Many people like solitude when they are feeling stressed. Your partner could easily take this separation as a lack of desire to be around them. Stress can also affect the perspective you use when thinking about things. You may find yourself nagging your partner over little things that really don't matter, but because you're stressed they seem to be more important than they really are. Stress is one of the unspoken leading causes of relationship failures. Make sure you're keeping your emotions in check with these tips.
1. Recognize when it is stress talking.
If you're feeling like you're being a little more negative than usual, make sure it is really how you're feeling and not stress talking. The last thing you want to do is make your partner feel like you don't enjoy being around them or that your feelings are dwindling. It may be too late to take back something you've said, but you can at least stop to explain why it happened.
2. Learn to balance your loads.
Make sure you're spending appropriate time on each area of your life. Don't spend all your time at work, and don't load up all your free time with activities. A great way to help you spend enough time on yourself, and with your partner is to mark on a calendar at the beginning of each month which days you will be spending time on yourself, and which days you're reserving for spending one-on-one time with your partner. If you have children, you should also add days for spending time just with your children as a family. Coordinate dates with your partner so your schedule doesn't conflict. If someone asks if you are available to do something, never plan something that will interfere with your previously scheduled dates.
3. Be realistic in setting up goals or time management.
So many times we expect too much of ourselves. When planning your to do lists or making future goals, be realistic as to how long it will take to achieve them. In fact, give yourself some extra time to complete tasks to allow for those pesky unexpected delays.
4. Make time to reconnect with nature, family and play.
When was the last time you went on a walk with your partner somewhere? Have you gone to the park or beach as an entire family lately? Make it a priority to spend at least two days a month with your partner outside, away from your daily life, doing something.
5. Don't worry, be happy.
In the bigger scheme of things it doesn't matter the things you've accomplished, but rather how you felt while accomplishing them. It doesn't matter if you've made it to the top of your company if you don't enjoy life. When you feel the ebbs of stress creeping up your neck, just take a deep breath and relax. Remember the old saying, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger."
