Good tips.

Source http://www.studygs.net/stress.htm Remove yourself from the stressful situation Give yourself a break if only for a few moments daily	Don't overwhelm yourselfby fretting about your entire workload. Handle each task as it comes, or selectively deal with matters in some priority
Don't sweat the small stuff Try to prioritize a few truly important things and let the rest slide	Learn how to best relax yourself Meditation and breathing exercises have been proven to be very effective in controlling stress. Practice clearing your mind of disturbing thoughts.
Selectively change the way you react, but not too much at one time. Focus on one troublesome thing and manage your reactions to it/him/her	Change the way you see your situation; seek alternative viewpoints Stress is a reaction to events and problems, and you can lock yourself in to one way of viewing your situation. Seek an outside perspective of the situation, compare it with yours. and perhaps lessen your reaction to these conditions.
Avoid extreme reactions; Why hate when a little dislike will do? Why generate anxiety when you can be nervous? Why rage when anger will do the job? Why be depressed when you can just be sad?	Do something for othersto help get your mind off your self
Get enough sleep Lack of rest just aggravates stress	Work off stresswith physical activity, whether it's jogging, tennis, gardening
Avoid self-medication or escape Alcohol and drugs can mask stress. They don't help deal with the problems	Begin to manage the effects of stress This is a long range strategy of adapting to your situation, and the effects of stress in your life. Try to isolate and work with one "effect" at a time. Don't overwhelm yourself. for example, if you are not sleeping well, seek help on this one problem.

Stress

Stress

Stress mostly develops when someone has something on their mind  for instance: you might have homework that needs to be done or maybe a test is coming up at school or you have had a fight with your friends. Those were  the every day stress problems that you would probably come across a lot in your life. In life you can be a stress jugler or a stress burger. A stress jugler is someone who copes with stress really well and you keep hold of that stress and when your done with it you just let it go. A stress burger is when you get stress and you just let it plop right on top of you and your surrounded but you just keep looking at it and you don't  deal with it so your burger just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
