What does stress do to you?
 

Stress brings out the worst in me.

It makes me feel angry at every little detail, very irate at slight annoyances, tetchy to the extreme, very very sensitive to physical and mental disturbances, very competitive and brings me up to a sugar rush high.

But damn does it feel good.

Makes me unfairly harsh, makes me remember tiny, unimportant things from years and years ago that irritated me in the slightest. Makes me procrastinate (Ironically) and punch walls (Ow).

Hell yeah, but it's focused procrastination. You find something that distracts you from your work and you fucking stick to it. None of this sitting at the computer going DUUUUUUH bullshit.

Damn I love being highly strung just a bit too much, reminds me of the olden days before I started to chill the fuck out.

Feeling full of despair and irritable. Doesn't happen that often though.

It's more a case of "If it betters my chances of doing anything constructive, i'm gonna leave it".

PUNCH MORE WALLS, CALL RETARDS OVER THE INTERNET OUT, GET THE BLOOD BOILING AND TELL THAT PROBLEM WHO'S BOSS.

Same goes for you babes.

Looks like someone didn't take his medicine today.

You'll learn when you get to university deadline stage.

You'll all learn.

;____;

I get depressed, hopeless and I cry.. :-/ Yea... I really do not handle stress very well.

My sister on the other hand becomes a bitch.

stress can make me very very stupid.

Can't say that me stressed has visible signs. It's either an insane amount of self-control or my lack of ability for expressing it. I only tend to get irritable with people, get paranoid, thinking someone will jump out from behind the corner and top everything I already have to cope with.

I guess I can relate to WoF on the university deadlines. This is my final term: thesis paper, final exam, and normal coursework in the form of presentations, essays and whatnot. Only way to cope with this kind of stress is to get down to it and get it out of the way. Even if it's one step at a time. The feeling that you did something helps a lot.

This precisely. I often feel as though I will at any minute hyperventilate, and it makes me feel compelled to strike something (and when I was a young adolescent, someone - used to get me into quite some trouble). It makes me witter all night. I have to get something done, or at least properly organise it, otherwise I cannot sleep.

Looking at this, I'm a miserable, over-sensitive bastard when I'm under stress.

I don't think it's the stress...

:p

dude stress is one of the main reasons i always make bad first impressions and also one of the main reasons that i am being bullied in school, half my problems are because i push my self very much and i am easily stressed especially around:- ppl i am not familiar with , cute girls , sexy girls , cool ppl , stupid ppl , ppl i am meeting for the first time.
so if it weren't for stress, i would have been something.

What do you mean you would have been something? You're fourteen, you don't need to be anything. You're just supposed to want to fuck everything that moves.

I could have been something, instead I'm at university getting a very low amount of money a year to live on and having a small flat that smells of litter.

Where's the justice in that eh? Where's the freaking justice?

as a 14 year old guy , i've been cumming alot the past few years , but i should be more than a fucker of everything that moves.
i should be more persuasive so that i can get out of situations easily , it's been working lately almost as if i am a jedi.
really , i can easily convince a lot of ppl.

ppl ppl ppl ppl ppl

convinced convinced convinced convinced convinced

Maybe they're just scared that you'll eat them?

Whenever I'm stressed, I tend to sing under my breath. Either that or I forget little details that I usually like. I also explode over whatever irritates me in the slightest if I know the person or thing irritating me. And when I'm having a bad day, I feel sad, angry or both.

stress causes me to get angry and irrational. i get more stressed with machinery than anything else. due to this i have almost electrocuted myself whilst trying to wrench a battery i was trying to replace out of a tractor, almost electrocuted myself again whilst trying to pull the pressure washer plug out of the wall when it started smoking, bent the axle on the telescopic forklift while racing around the yard (stupidly) due to being stressed over time management, the list goes on and gets more bizarre.

only instance i can remember where i raged due to stress and actually did some proper damage, was when i kicked the window out of yet another tractor. the bloody thing didn't have a cold start system, would not start due to this and i was already 2 hours late for milking. i paid for the damage, and rightly so.

so after rereading all that i'll add that stress also makes me incredible stupid.

happens to me sometimes.

Save it for the Sex Thread dude.

When I get stressed I usually take it out on my health by smoking alot (I'd chain-smoke about 10 fags to calm down) I get stressed out by proper stuff like exams and coursework deadlines and stupid stuff like not being able to play something on guitar or something like that.
But people have never came up/avoided me whenever I'm stressed because I always supress ANY feeling I have until someone makes me explode (I'm not here for the sex jokes)

Oh dear... You give me that setup after I've already used up my quota of Peter jokes for today? You cruel person, you.

There is one instance that I can recall vividly enough. A friend and me went on an impromptu trip up to the Central Coast of NSW. We realised once we got their that we had no money. And I mean, NO money. We were about two hours of Sydney, and we had very little petrol left.

For about an hour I whinged and got rather bitchy. Then I relinquished myself to fate.

Apart from that, I rarely am stressed. There are a few people who really dislike my attitude in that manner. It's as if I should be stressed in quite a few situations.

Alcar...

It makes me want to yell, punch, stomp, yell, smash, yell and break everything.

It also makes me grind my teeth when I sleep.

I don't really stress much, but it does happen occasionally. Even then, it's usually not really a big deal. Sure, I'll call my friends and tell them I hate my life, complain about the government conspiring against me, become irritable about completely insignificant little things, but at the end of the day I'm usually all right.

When I'm stressed, I tend to get irrational thoughts. I know I'm stressed and that I'm not thinking right, so I avoid any unnecessarily stupid actions. (As opposed to necessary stupid actions?)
