When I quit smoking, I went kind of drastic and bought
myself a pottery = wheel. You gotta REALLY want a cigarette
if you're going to stop what = you'e doing, clean all the
mud off your hands, get dressed enough to = step outside,
etc. It is the same with eating. It's a very relaxing =
hobby and very meditative too. Keeps the hands busy and away
from = snacks. And if you really need to smash some stress,
you have all sorts = of stuff that you've made that you can
smash at a moments notice.
For most people, buying a pottery wheel probably isn't very
practical. = But there are paint your own pottery places.
They often have classes = where a group of people get
together and chat and have fun. =20
Maybe you should try scrapbooking. Most scrapbooking
stores have = classes that are more along the lines of
social events.
Basically - get a hobby that will keep your hands busy but
will also = introduce you to new people who are completely
outside of your stressful = situation. =20 "Kristine

"]news:[email hidden]... I
am going through a stressful time at work. I may have to
hire a = lawyer to resolve the issue. I wonder what the best
non eating way to = handle the stress is. I run and
knit/crochet but it might not be enough. = Thanks. Kristine
