Practice gratitude by focusing on the things you're thankful for, even in difficult circumstances. Challenge negative thoughts with positive affirmations and reframing techniques. Surround yourself with supportive friends and family who uplift and encourage you. Engage in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment, and focus on what you can control rather than dwelling on what you can't. Remember, a positive mindset is a powerful tool for overcoming adversity and navigating life's ups and downs with resilience and grace.

Meditating is also a great way to deal with stress. You can also speak to your doctor if you are feeling unbearable stress. Talking to a professional is also a good thing to do. Being in the company of good people is also quite important if you want to mange stress.
