How do you guys cope with Stress?
Hello,
This question is geared more towards people that are formerly religious (Christians in particular). That being said I still welcome insight from any background.
I think for many religious people, their beliefs, practices, etc serve as a coping mechanism(s) for stress. I also think for most people, those beliefs cease to be a source of relief when lost. Instead, even becoming a source of stress themselves by conjuring negative emotions. I think this sums up much of the angry atheist phenomena.
For those of you that once derived comfort from religious beliefs, but no longer, what have you replaced them with? I am also curious in general how people here cope with stress. Thanks.
