How do I de-stress and keep anxiety down?

Answers:
Boy, everyone is ready to bash the mean husband that forces his wife to work! That's a quick judgement without knowing all of the details. Anyways, if you are in a situation where you can't afford to be unemployed for awhile, until you find something else, the best thing you can do is learn to manage the stress from your job as much as possible. Can you do anything to reduce the stress on your job like delegate work to other people or have a discussion with your boss about how overwhelmed you feel with your current responsabilities and maybe some changes can be made. In addition to that, during the day, take advantage of breaks to relax and unwind. Find a quiet comfortable place to lean back, close your eyes, and breath slowly, feeling your muscles loosen up. Think about something calm and peaceful, maybe a good memory. During your drive home, you can also take deep breaths and try to leave the work day behind you. Focus on seeing your family instead. After you get home from work, try doing 30 minutes of exercise such as jogging, aerobics, or whatever. Exercise really releases a lot of tension. Then, take a nice warm shower or bath and you should be ready to have a nice relaxing evening until the next day when you do it all again. Hopefully this will help you now and even after you find a less stressful job.

smoke some pot. Works for me.
You don't have to listen to your husband. your a person free to make ur on decisions When you feel overwhelmed, take a deep breath, close your eyes and imagine yourself in a calming place. Beach, lake, woods, whatever works for you. I helps me out every time.
I can understand that finances may be such that you need to work. However, your husband is thoughtless and insensitive to insist you stay put until you get another job. Quit, and then use that time to look for and get something you will be happy and satisfied doing. Your husband should be supporting you in times like this as you would do for him if he were in the same predicament. You will be no good to him or to anyone else, and you may be out of work for a very long time if you have a nervous breakdown. Tell him to shove it, and do what you think is best.
