I know I shouldn't- but you know it's not something easy. Most of the time it's subconscious too, so to even have a chance at fighting against it I need to be calm enough to realise my body's been getting more tense recently, and it's often a subtle rise

Recognising it was the hardest part for me, and no you're right it's not easy, meds definitely helped me but they're also not at all a quick fix. Also, it's less these days but work stress can definitely still creep up on me, having a support network helps, but these days I just don't care about work as much as I used to (not that I don't care at all, just really try to frame what's most important to me)
