how do i kill stress

Habits will keep stress down. It'll be easier to do certain things once you get used to doing them regularly. Like picking up trash, dirty laundry and used dishes around your place for 10 minutes every morning. A lot can be done in that short amount of time if you focus. When you get home, there will be less mess to worry about.

Habits work like a charm on most things you have to do but it's hard to build them and probably not possible to build multiple at once and stick to them.

Also read up on meditation or try yoga (gentle or more energetic depending on your needs for the day).

i actually have a lot of habits i developed into my routine to give me more of a sense of stability and i do enjoy doing them during the times i'm not undergoing so much inner turmoil, but when i'm currently under stress overload i find myself unmotivated and tend to stress even more by forcing myself to keep up with the habits if that makes any sense

i'll look into meditation and yoga, there's actually some free yoga classes offered in my community so guess i should take advantage of that, thank you

meditate

go on vacation. meditation is bullshit.

What kind of stress are you talking about? Work or school related stress or stress about paying bills, keeping up a relationship, etc.?

Stress Management with EMDR by Mark Grant.

I used to listen to this every night when i was doing my masters thesis. I had so many thoughts about "what if i fail this", "what if i don't get a job", "what if i become homeless", "what if people realize how stupid i am" and so on.

I also took beta blockers before i held my presentations. Got them illegally from my mom.
