Is there something that works for you, or you just kind of like?

Cortisol spiking up in 15min cycles like clockwork. You know how you can freak out a cat with eyes wide open? The events that cause it are just as benign just a bunch of noise everywhere and other participants in traffic etc..., but when they don't have my stress spiking for half an hour or longer, I usually start doing reality tests like try to breathe while holding my nose, or pinch myself or stuff like that. If it doesn't feel like mofos are coordinating themselves so there is allways at least 1 in my feet, it doesn't feel normal.
Not sure what you hope to achieve with stress, if your life expectancy feels too long, there is allways drugs they are more pleasant.

Literally everyone uses stress. You can't even hunt without stress.
It's addictive, m8. It appeals just as much as it revolts. People work with stress just as they work with calm.

Hard disagree. Adrenaline has an inhebriating pull. Cortisol is just grating. And to pin distinct effects to neurotransmitters enzymes, pheromones and whatever, is allready a gross oversimplification. To throw them both under the same semantical umbrella is worse.
They might often go hand in hand but to me it sounds like you asked where you can get tar, when I'm pretty sure you wanted nicotine.

Even when it's bad stress... you still work with it. People do that everyday.
BUT HOW? ???

Came here expecting 100kPa uniform compression, was disappointed.

The best way to deal with stress is to stay cool.
Have you seen Pulp Fiction? There is this scene where two incompetent criminals messed up. One of them accidentally blew a guys head off in the car. They panic and drive to a nearby friend, but the friend is not amused - his wife will come home in an hour and if she find two criminals with a gore covered car in the garage she will throw a scene and divorce.
So they call in the Competent Criminal, mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf does nothing special: he tells them the obvious. Clean the car. Get clean clothes. etc etc.
It is how he does it, though. Ultimate example of staying cool under stress. Watch it.

Payday 2 used to have a skill called "Winston Wolf" that reduced the cleaner cost penalty for any civilian deaths.

Huh, why? Doesn't matter I'm in.
Your own,
personal,
novel scoops,
someone to prompt your queer,
someone who dares.
People are people so how could it be, that novel wouldn't open a new thread for thee.
Words are meaningless and forgettable. Yet, I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough.

If something needs processed then go process it.
