Right now I don't have any stress bothering me. I will have to learn how to cope and manage with stressful things at work. It is a learning process.

@atheist Oh! You changed your avatar. I didn't recognize who I was talking to. I normally don't even look at the username much anymore. He has been basking in the sun for a few days. It is 80 degrees out all of this week and I left my blinds open for some light into my room. Right now I don't want to go outside into the heat. I did however walk through the sprinklers on the way home. The new city pool has opened up and they were watering their lawn at 2:15 pm. IDK why in the middle of the day they want to do that? What a waste of water, because half of it is on the sidewalk.
@atheist Okay.
I don't really ever feel stressed. Sometimes, when I was working and I was already behind, and another patient was added on, I would feel it for a few minutes, but, it didn't help, so I shrugged it off and moved on. Some things in my life have been hard, but I didn't feel stressed. I felt sad or tired, but not stressed. It doesn't make the issue go away, it just made it worse, so I decided not to feel it.

@atheist thank you much!
I don't really get stressed about anything.
Not worth it.

It's an individual kinda thing.
I just don't see any point in stressing or worrying about much. I do what I can, plan, etc....but everything happens or not and I deal with it in its time.
Some guy said "anxiety (or stress) doesn't come from fearing the future, rather from the inability to control it"
Stress is the mind spending too much time on the things you can’t control. Funny I spotted this just moments after a meditation session.. I get stressed, I’m not enlightened, I’m not a guru but meditation gets me recentetd, calms the mind and body. Everything is fine if you take the time to notice that nothing is wrong. The next few hours of my day will be busy, having made the effort I can bring calm to what would otherwise be stressful
