How do I keep my mind healthy despite living under stress?
I often do relaxation therapies, meditating is a habit that is part of my life, drinking a good aromatic herbal tea helps me to feel relaxed. However, the burdens that rest on me are so many that these actions are insufficient to free me from the continuous stress that I suffer. However, a great medicine that has benefited me has been the constant support of my friends, all of them women, they have become the best therapy, laughter, confidences, sharing, every moment with them contributes to that tensions dissipate and stress is reduced.
They are certainly not therapists, but they are confidants who are interested in my problems and intervene as far as they can to alleviate the emotional burden I am subjected to. On the other hand, when it is out of their hands, they are just friends who invent any activity to provide me with distraction and good times, which are transformed into pleasant memories that compete against the negative experiences lived during the day.
A dinner, a movie, an outing to the park, a coffee, any activity, no matter how simple it may seem, becomes a good therapy. Even more important is a good conversation, their interest in the things that happen to me leads us to establish long talks that end in motivational phrases that make you forget for a second the complications of life, it is at that moment where I feel fortunate to have them, great friendships that show that being alone is synonymous with self-destruction, and that the company of others is vital to face the abversities of life.
I am an example that the human being was not born to be alone, the influence of others has led me to maintain the firmness that characterizes me, the value of a good friendship is reflected in the demonstrations of my friends to me, in my opinion, the best antidote against stress are them. I can affirm that, friends help us to keep us mentally and/or emotionally healthy, something fundamental for us to enjoy a good mental health and thus, free us to a certain extent from the continuous stress to which we may be subjected.
¿Cómo mantengo mi mente sana a pesar de vivir estresado?
Con frecuencia realizo terapias de relajación, meditar es una costumbre que hace parte de mi vida, tomar un buen té de hierbas aromáticas me ayuda a sentirme relajado. No obstante, las cargas que posan sobre mi son tantas que estás acciones resultan insuficientes para liberarme del continuo estrés que padezco. Sin embargo, una gran medicina que me ha beneficiado ha sido el apoyo constante de mis amigos, todas ellas mujeres, se han convertido en la mejor terapia, las risas, las confidencias, el compartir, cada momento junto a ellas contribuye a qué las tensiones se disipen y el estrés se vea reducido.
Ciertamente no son terapeutas, pero, son confidentes que se interesan de mis problemas e intervienen en la medida de sus posibilidades para aliviar la carga emocional a la que estoy sometido. Por otra parte, cuando escapa de sus manos, solo son amigas que se inventan cualquier actividad con tal de brindarme distracción y buenos momentos, que se transforman en gratos recuerdos que compiten contra las experiencias negativas vividas durante el día.
Soy un ejemplo de que el ser humano no nació para estar solo, la influencia de terceros me ha llevado a mantener la firmeza que me caracteriza, el valor de una buena amistad se ve reflejado en las demostraciones de mis amigas hacía mí, a mí criterio, el mejor antídoto contra el estrés son ellas. Puedo afirmar que, los amigos nos ayudan a mantenernos sanos mental y/o emocionalmente, algo fundamental para que gocemos de una buena salud mental y así, liberarnos en cierta medida del estrés continuo al que podamos estar sometidos.

Actually the human being was not born to be alone. What a blessing that you can support yourself with friends, with really good friends to manage your stress. Certainly, and I speak from experience, surrounding yourself with good people can be even more effective than the pills that doctors prescribe for us. My friends are far away, so I have had to find other ways to control my stress, but it is possible! Thank you for sharing this!
Thanks to you for appreciating and valuing my content, certainly friends play an important role in our lives and therefore benefit or harm our moods. Fortunately I surround myself with great friends who provide me with emotional support to free me from many situations that generate stress.
I am sorry that you are separated from your friends, I hope you can get new friends that will allow you to cope a little with the absence of those who are not with you.
Greetings...🤗
