Dealing with stress from work.

I'll put it out straight out there. How do you deal with this?

We all work in different environments with various fields of expertise. But, there are days we all experience whether it's working in a retail environment where you were working the 11PM closing shift one day and coming into the opening shift at 6AM the next day, or an office work where your clients' account is fucked up to no end and here you are on a Sunday facing left over emails to answer and reports to finish at your computer either in the office or at home.

So in situations like those days where you just want to scream at the top of your lungs due to pressure from work/your job, what do you do to relieve yourself from it? Do you keep a low profile and continue working just one bit of a time, or do you wait until the weekend to go all out crazy on a drinking binge with your buddies?

I tend to opt for plenty of sleep and really good, home-cooked meals to help relieve myself. That and plenty of manga indulgence, if I get the chance/time to do so. It's too dangerous in my neighborhood for just a walk out in the park (especially at night when I get off work), and drinking alcohol just seems counter-productive for me (I get hangovers before getting drunk).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Our company provided us with a massage chair. Quite frankly, I don't see anyone using it and the company in general doesn't get much use out of it as intended, although it is a nice gesture towards the employees. (It also might have to do with the fact that it's sitting in the front lobby where anyone who walks in might spot anyone using that chair)

I still think a punching bag in the place of that massage chair would have served the purpose better.
