I have never been good at managing stress. This just isn't one of the things I have learned to do very well, and it is really hard to let go of the stress in situations when I can't do anything about it, such as on the bus or in the shower. However these moments do happen and I am slowly learning how to let go. Writing I have found can be a great way to get away from the stress because my mind is completely occupied by the characters and the setting. Who knew it could be so comforting?
Of course you do have to make sure that the inner critic is off on a break because otherwise the writing itself can become insanely stressful. But I have also learned that sometimes you just need to write and worry about making it perfect later! It will all work out in the end, one way or another!
