    I talk to friends and family. Even vent sometimes and just tell them about my day. Its not always easy being a stay at home mom of 5. So you need to have a few people you can talk to.

    I have different friends I call for different kinds of stress. My grown children are a great comfort to me although when I talk to them I don't always talk about what is stressing me but just talking to them makes me feel better. I also like to talk to my 5 and 7 yr old grandchildren.
