How do you deal with stress from work?

I got a new job and it’s ok but it’s high volume and I’ve noticed I keep having work dreams on my days off. I’m hoping that I will eventually get used to the job and the dreams will go away. In the meantime though I’m tense and upset about it. I’m crying. How do you relax about working??

Gotta leave work at work. Exercise,write down the things that area bothering you and put list away. It's to be worried about tomorrow when it's work time. Then you go exercise and live a off work life. If troubles are so bad they'll be fine till tomorrow

@Applepiedom "Take tomorrow tomorrow" is a good reminder.

@Queendragonfly if you look for trouble you'll find it. Tomorrow will take care of itself

@Applepiedom Between a bad imagination and good imagination I prefer the good. It isn't causing me stress.

@Applepiedom I've also found that it takes self confidence to believe that whatever happens tomorrow , you'll have your own back. You'll be able to handle it and protect yourself.

@Queendragonfly it is a view point. Like in school,everyone says work hard to get good grades,you already have an A to start,all you have to do is maintain it

@Applepiedom I wouldn't say everyone starts with an A though so maybe not the best example but I understand what you mean.
