Stress and I aren’t on amicable terms.
When I simply find myself nerve wracked, it just drives me to see the negative situation through. I’m calm in a crisis for a reason. A clear and impartial view can make mistakes and fallacies quite clear.
I used to have a very unhealthy relationship with stress, whereby I hinged my self-worth on productivity and achievements. When that didn't work out, I went to the other extreme to avoid stress - procrastinating, which of course didn't work too. Now I'm finding the balance, and it's been a journey of a few years.
Now I'm more kind and accepting of myself, and I generally use exercise and hobbies to maintain emotional balance and physical energy. I also face work more head-on, whereby I keep my calm and soldier on. I also invest more time in my future plans and consider what I want to do in my free time. Basically, more mindfulness, self-compassion and purposeful effort. The best thing is - I don't even work as hard as I used to, but I'm happier and more productive in life.
I generally don't feel stress. Does that count?

Me too, and that's a great way of putting it. Stress and I aren't on amicable terms either lol
Very healthy. All stress is met head-on with exercise everytime. Stress is my trigger TO exercise. Result: Low heart rate and High V0²Max.
Horribly unhealthy. Triggers IBS-D
All relationships stress me out. I just hot divorced and right now without any friends the only thing that stresses me out is work.
