How do you deal with large amounts of stress?
I've been totally stressed out lately. To make a long story short: I was laid off last month, and I've spent the past couple of months interviewing (I foresaw the layoff). I have received and accepted a job offer (woohoo
), but the new job would require me to commute 2+ hours each way via commuter rail and subway. So my husband and I have started the process of moving closer to my new job. This means selling our current house (which I love
) and buying a new place. The for-sale sign went up today at my current house (*sob*), and we spent a very discouraging afternoon today with a realtor in our target city, viewing properties and finding absolutely nothing we liked.
With all this going on, I've been overwhelmed with stress. My usual ways of coping with stress (long walk, gardening) just aren't cutting it. At this point I'm half-tempted to call off the move and suck up the commute.
Any ideas for handling the stress? (besides venting on GC
)
