Everyone does, I seen your post just now about your girl friend. I think it's nice to see the various ways that people try to cope with their problems. It gives opportunity to others to try new things and see what works best for themselves. I just heard that working out does help, it's almost like a physical way of releasing tension and stress in the form of physical energy. But at the same time, turning it into a routine could boost your self confidence as well because you're doing something healthy, and i'm sure anyone can be happy with results that it brings to their physique.
A few more I know off my head that i've never tried however.
-Meditation
-Yoga (probably more for the females)
-Dance (along with basically any kind of hobby that you might have, my girlfriend told me that she enjoys dancing to keep her mind off things though)
You could go golfing, play basketball, do whatever you want. I'm sure it helps as long as you can focus your thoughts away from whatever is bothering you at the time you do it.
My ultimate definition of coping with problems:
Quote:Anything that keeps your mind off the actual problem at hand for a long enough period of time, ensuring that you're brain gets enough of a break so that you're not overwhelmed when you have to go back and try to deal with that particular problem
I view it that way, everyone needs a break, and it's not only physically, in this case it's most likely going to take a mental break to get you back on track where you need to be.
