How do you guys cope with stress in the workplace?

I'm the most stressed when I feel out of control, so I usually try to identify what elements of my job are causing me distress and map out plans for addressing them. Sometimes that means bringing in inside/outside support. And I always try to keep at the forefront of my mind that seasons come and go. This too shall pass.

Great input! It seems like you manage it pretty well just based on your response. I know sometimes I feel overwhelmed and I just have to take a step back

Personally, I like to start my day with a to-do list to keep things organized. Also, sharing a laugh with a coworker over a coffee break can be a great stress-buster

That’s great! I started to do a daily to do list to keep myself organized too but I stopped doing that. Maybe I should start it back up!

I'm known in my office for being chill because I have enough savings to last me a year if I get let go. I used to get so stressed out about my job before but now I don't get bothered anymore. Plus, I remind myself that they don't pay me enough to have anxiety. This mental shift has helped me so much.

Financial stability is a really good destresser!

I'm working on developing coping mechanisms. In the past, I would just get another job. I have started going to therapy and speaking up for myself more and that helps.

I just started watching Suits actually so it's cool that I was able to catch this reference. I get exactly what you mean.

I tend to start being reclusive. I start be to myself to regulate my nerves before I go back to the masses.

I desperately need help/guidance from someone, I tried going to some therapists but they just emphasize antidepressants.

Below are my thoughts rn: Man, I’m 28 and such a bum. I work a job I hate, I have no social circle. I have never had a gf. All these things are so challenging because I’m autistic. I can’t change that. What’s the point of living when society treats ppl like me like I don’t matter. Maybe I should just take a bunch of sleeping pills so I don’t have to deal with life anymore.

venting
I’m 23 and independent. Working full time and studying full time is taking a serious toll on my mental health. I’m always tired, unmotivated, depressed, sometimes angry at my life, and I don’t know what to do. I’m in my sophomore year. I also don’t work in the field that I’m studying (computer science) because I’m always rejected without an interview, which is another aggravating factor for me. It’s hard to have time to work on personal projects to make my portfolio more attractive.
