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??

I remind myself that it’s not my life; it’s just funding things I do or have. If I mess up or things are tense, that sucks but it’s not my life.
(Never had a job where people’s lives or wellbeing was my responsibility, because that’s a completely different story. I’d never get a job that had that kind of stress. Because what I said couldn’t apply in those fields)
