Where do you go or what do you do when overwhelmed?
I figured this was the right place to ask it...

Re: Where do you go or what do you do when overwhelmed?
I usually take a walk because it's a great way to clear my head and get away from the overwhelming situation for a while. Listening to some music can be good too, though, especially if the music has no words, like a video game OST.
My first completed visual novel, which is at 1.3, it's final version(woo hoo!): Monster Uses CPU 2
Finally at version 1.0: White Fog
I make one song every week, all for free download! This weeks song: Synthis- The Mirror(Eliana Remix)[Preview]
You might ask yourself: If I could only save one paragraph of the work I'm writing, which one would I save?
Which one would I let go first?

Sometimes I like to take a nap or just sleep for the night. A good rest is like rebooting your brain.

Play games. They help me forget about everything. AS IN EVERYTHING and I end up crying in the corner because I completely forgot to do something very important <_<

Re: Where do you go or what do you do when overwhelmed?
Overwhelmed? Hmm... doesn't really happen anymore. I make sure to find time to relax, even if it's just a 5 minute break in the middle of work. Relaxing means doing something fun that can hold my attention. Distractions are good.

The #renpy IRC channel is a great place to chat with other devs. Due to the nature of IRC and timezone differences, people probably won't reply right away.

Out into our garden, it's massive and nice, and we live in the woods too, and surrounded by fields, ohman, it's literally the most perfect place to relax ever. I ruin it with music :I

Re: Where do you go or what do you do when overwhelmed?
When I become overwhelmed (mostly with work), I just leave them all in the side and do something that releases my stress. Say, watch a movie, play a game, play really loud music, cry over a book, anything that distracts me.
