*Stress is always part of my life. I'm the kind of person who gets stressed easily. Whether it's about work, my boss, family, or personal matters. Whenever I'm stressed, I cannot eat or sleep properly. I must focus on the positive side and think of the happy days to escape it. I want someone to talk to if I'm stressed. I prefer to speak to a stranger or some of my virtual friends rather than talk to someone close to me. At least I can pour my heart out without worrying what they would think of me. They don't know me personally in the first place😛. Sometimes, I would also meet with friends to change my environment and have a good time.
But I seldom share my burdens with my friends. I'm only there to relax and chill out, not to share what I'm going through. I'm still uncomfortable talking about my life, even to people I hang out with. They can share with me what's happening in their life, and I would lend my ears to them and give some advice if I need to, but talking about mine is not my cup of tea😌. I can share about my work and how it stressed me. But about personal things, I leave it behind.
I remember to pray whenever I'm down and stressed (even if not); praying helps me a lot during difficult times. Even though I seldom attend church, I pray in my room to give me the strength and courage to face those battles.
Nature is also my stress reliever. I feel energized and renewed whenever I'm with nature. It calms my mind and heart. I would always return home happily after spending a few hours in nature😌.
Last but not least, my favorite stress reliever is doing shopping😁. Either go to a shopping mall or shop online. If I cannot go to the shop, I will do it online. I would open the app, select all the items I like, and add them to my cart😁—dresses, shoes, bags, anything that caught my interest. After I calmed down, I would go over these items and choose the one I liked the most, but not without checking the ratings and reviews. Then here I go, click the place order😌.
I would be waiting for my order to arrive happily and excitedly. However, there are times that I get disappointed with the things that I've ordered. Well, that's expectation versus reality. I would instead return it or send it home.
Though I'm a shopping addict, whenever I'm stressed, I try to control it. It's a big help that I don't keep money in my account. Otherwise, I would do the shopping more often. My closet is full of dresses, but whenever I go out on off days, how come I have nothing to wear😐.
This is my response to this week's question. Today's world is full of stress, deadlines, and too much to do! What is the number one stress reliever you depend on to make it through?
That's all for today, guys. See you around♥️.

Yet I remember, it won't fit to me 🙄😡.
So buy for me na lng,hmpp
Meron minsan malaki, pero parang Hindi pa Rin siguro mgkasya😁😛
😜 There is a goal for you!
Haha that was too impossible! Lol
@asiaymalay was too skinny 😆
Wow.. mahal ka po ma-stress.😄😄 Ubos Pera.😁
Wala LAGI laman ang account😬😁. Lagi ubos.
Iwasan talaga magka.stress ma'am.😄😄
Kaya nga e, delikado buhay natin Pg ngkaganon🤣
😁😁Chillax lang po.😄
Sometimes talaga it's better na sa virtual friends mag confide no. If sa family kasi dagdag pa din sa isipin na yon. And, if by releasing lang naman our frustrating by sharing it someone else, at least malaking tulong to us. That shopping, ang saya mag shopping spree, nakakalimot ng problema. Kaso later yan din naman ang poproblemahin natin ahahaha
Kaya nga e. Kung SA pamilya, mamroblema din sila. Kaya mas ok NASA SA virtual😁. Lagi nga ubos yung pera SA kakashopping online.😁
Haha pero uulit shopping ulit, hahahaha
Hindi mapigilan minsan. Nangangati daliri KO mg browse😁. Tapos mgsisisi din, lalo na pag Hindi maganda Yung item huhu.
I agree sometimes easier to talk to strangers and virtuals. I don't usually share my issues with the people i know in the physical world.
Nature is definitely a stress reliever you follow me enough to know that though so nothing to add 🤪 😂
Being a guy shopping would stress me out. I'd worry about the money I just lost, haha. But there's many foods and sweets that I can find happiness with :D
I know you also like to blend with nature😁.
I lost appetite when I'm stress. I would only eat because I need, not because I want😬.
I'm a different kind of animal when I eat due to stress. Sometimes I endulge and other times I don't. Really depends on what I'm stressing about.
Some of my friends also turn to food to release their stress😁. Hehehe
Now I'm getting hungry but not stress induced 🤣
Hehehe😛
Shopping as a stress relief can be a slippery slope getting me into a bad habit, I would incorporate it with a broader plan to deal with stress like after some exercise and a hot shower before chipping my credit card out from a block of ice.
😁😁hehe. Exercise is also a great way to relieve stress. But sometimes I'm too lazy to do it.
but nakakapag online shopping ka jan na del straight sa house nyo... dati samin d pwd gamitin ang address, hehe..
nature is my top stress reliever, then food, especially sweets, hehe.. buti hndi ako tumataba...
Yan na siguro katawan mo sis. Slim talaga. Uo pwede mgpadeliver door step dito. Ok Lang SA MgA amo KO😁.
Stress is part of life I think :) It's how we deal with it makes the difference. I'm glad you have various channels to let it out. Sometimes it's good to keep personal matters to ourselves, although when it's too much, we gotta let it out :) Okay rin ang magshopping basta hindi sobra hihi :)

Thank you Sis😁♥️. Minsan dyan Lang ako natutuwa SA pg shopping.😂
At least may paraan sis. 😁
Nature is indeed refreshing. That's nice.
Thank you♥️. It's a natural healer.
I do have someone I tell all my problems to but I can understand the thrill of telling someone who knows nothing about you. Who wouldn't see you, and judge you. Plus, you add it up with prayer? You're good, girl.🌺
Thank you♥️. Hehe. I feel comfortable talking to someone I knows virtually for that reason. Cannot judge you or spread the rumors..hehehe.😬
Emphasis on that last part. Better be safe than sorry.
Happy Sunday to you.🫂
Thank you sis♥️. Same to you.
I like that you included shopping as one of your favorite stress reliever :D... I also like to go shopping for things that i'm interested in... whenever, I get something that i really, it has a way of making me feel so much better.
Thank you♥️😁. The excitement and happiness when thinking that you get what you want really helps a lot😁.
I understand about talking with people you know versus those you don't. I'm kind of the same way but haven't really expressed much.
Nature is a wonderful stress reliever! Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!
Thank you♥️. Such a relief after spending time with nature😁.
🤗💟🌻
Nature rocks!
We are quite alike ...
Shopping I seem to do daily for groceries but not sure it relieves stress. I don't get stressed at all except for once in a blue moon. I don't overthink, some would say I don't think 🤣 but that maybe why I don't get stressed. What will happen will happen, and what has happened has happened... why stress about it?
I wish it's that easy😂. Not to get bothered about what's happening😁.
Yes we have to blot things out
😬😛
You menage stress nicely. But sometimes stress break everyone in complex cases.
Thank you♥️. If you don't know how to handle stress it could harm you emotionally and mentally.😐
Definitely, you said hundred percent right 👍
