What helps me with my stress is crochet. When I feel like I've had a tough day or had taken in too much, I crochet and calm myself. Reading the bible and cleaning up helps me too. It just takes my mind off other things.
What helps me with my panic/anxiety attacks is standing in the middle of a room, and naming everything I see and the colour. For example, if I were to have an attack now, I'd say "black laptop, "blue bottle", "orange box", "white ceiling" - anything at all that's visible.
