| I find it helps to chat to a friend, someone you can have a real rant to, and who wont take it personally if it sometimes seems like you are mad at them.
Otherwise writing is my great escape... I often write something... a letter, poem, story, essay (yep! I have been known to wrote essays when I dont have to!), then burn it...
Mind you, I always regret burning it afterwards, but its pretty theraputic...
Classical music... something to match your mood... that helps me...
And, as a last resort, if I am REALLY stressed, a run. mp3 player on, turned up loud, and run.
