I've recently started a new job as a "Child Care Therapist" dealing with boys between the ages of 8-18. They suffer from many different forms of mental disorders ranging from Bi-polar, Add/adhd/severe learning disorders, Cocaine/crack babies, Fetal Alcohol syndrome, conduct disorder, emotionally disturbed, sexual/physical abuse victimization etc etc etc (the list seems to never end). To put it bluntly they are "the worst of the worst" or "the best of the best....at causing ****" and the place I'm enployed is the last stop over before a life behind bars or in mental hospitals for many/most. I'm pulling a 72 hour week right now which is not unusual or even a particularly long week by some staffs measure. I've had some really stressful days already, although today was a blast and we took some of the better behaved kids to the beach, and I'm just wondering how you guys deal with stress?

, but not anymore. Anytype of Physical activity. I also work on home improvement projects, or go out into the woods hiking. I volunteer in a nonprofit gig, which I really love. And working on Customs or playing in the forum. I try not to bring work home with me. Stress is bad, and leads to heart attacks. Best to avoid it if possible.
