When I "had" stress, I mentally faced the situation that "effected" the stress.

Whatever you do, do NOT run from it.

And, breathe deeeeeeeeeep.

Do you play a musical instrument? If you do, playing it for a couple of hours will help you feel relax.

Try getting yourself into bed for a couple of hours, followed by a shower. You will feel like you were reborn.
 
I drink a lot. For physical stress, a very long, very hot bath works wonders.
