Things that are good for stress:
- Drinking lots of coffee
- Not being able to go to the toilet when you really have to
- Thinking you might have a deadly disease
- Having a very important deadline coming on without being able to deliver
- Sleeping only a few hours each night
- Having your boss come around a few times each day while mentioning that there isn't enough budget to employ all of you
- Your girlfriend/wife being very active, but very noncomittal and abrupt to you, without there being parties in the near future
- Your child crying a lot for no clear reason
- Running out of all your money
- Your car making very strange noises while driving on the highway
- Seeing the same face often when outside, probably following you
- Persistent rumors of a draft everywhere while at war and of the right age
- Losing your job when you just bought a house
- The shares you bought keep going down and already are worth less than all your life savings you used to buy them
- The television interrupting for a special announcement and zooming to your neighborhood
- The neighbours dog foaming at the mouth and seeming to want to kill you whenever you're in front of your house
- Having lots of unpaid bills and being afraid to answer the doorbell
- Your child being away from home all day so far, without knowing why
- Sirens going off around you all day
