Personally I get real mean to myself and call myself garbage. How about you?
Get away and music bathe back to baseline

Disengagement.
If I can physically disengage, walking away from the situation, I’d do it. If not, I’ll mentally disengage. Enough times of this, I’ll just default to it: not giving a shit because apparently, no one does.
If I must engage in it anyways, maybe I’ll return to it once I’ve calmed down. If I must do it there and then (so, no time to compose myself), I’d do minimum I can get away with.
How does one effectively mentally disengage in a situation, which stretches for a while when you cant physically go away from it?
I can’t really explain it, but it is akin to tuning it out. Basically ignoring it as it it were tinnitus.
Of course it can only be done if you can afford not to engage it (or engage in it such that you can fake engaging in it). IDK, it’s really hard to explain.
What stress? Work stress? One thing. Social stress? Another. Geopolitical shit? Third response.
Oh ya, good distinction. Mostly work stress on my end elicits that reaction. How about you, which one impacts you the most and how do you respond?
Mine are all unhealthy but I think my stress is quite high. It was drinking way too much… not it’s having a drink with junk food, staying up late 报复熬夜, and being outwardly anxious
I get the strong urge to slam illicit opiates into my veins. But I can’t do that anymore so now I do dif breathing exercises.
Oh that’s so real. I’m like six years clean of opiates - it does get easier, but occasionally my veins get itchy when I get really stressed. Normally relationship stress.
