The best way to manage stress is to avoid it. You can do this by recognizing a stressful situation and creating a plan to deal with it before it causes you to stress out. Once stressed however, I like to take a hot bath, light some candles and daydream for an hour or so. Or sometimes I just slip into a good book and let the rest of the world float away.

I call my best friend, rant for a little bit, and then I'm good.
Punching bags works, too. Any exercise is good, really, because the stress helps fuel you.

I read a good book, talk to my friends for support, and go exercise. Exercising relieves a lot of my stress and your frustration and anger disappears after a good workout.

Playing my guitar or piano. Going running. Listening to music really loud. Screaming at the top of my lungs when nobody can hear me. Cooking something really tasty.

smoking. I pile everything up inside of me, so I really don't show stress, but I smoke a lot when I am stressed.
