Question 7

does ltheanine reduce stress?

Accepted Answer

No: Theanine can relax you when stressed, but it does not reduce the stress itself.  What you perceive as "stress" is unique to each person, and a more lasting solution is to work with a therapist about it.  Then you can understand more about your makeup, and learn to handle what comes with more balance.  Seeing things as threatening is stressful for most of us -- but therapy can improve resilience.

Job selection is key: Find something you like doing, something that makes you want to go to work every morning (yet leave at night :0). And make sure you have support of your family. Then plunge into your work, but do take breaks to stretch, walk around outside, eat, laugh. And then go home and turn off all of your devices, unless you are 'on call' that night.

Question 9

why does exercise reduce stress?

Accepted Answer

Discharge: "stress" can bring about feelings of tension, frustration, irritation, and anger.  All these responses can be hard to contain, and the more you try to contain them, the more they press for release.  Exercise provides a safe and healthy avenue to release aggression, tension, etc through movement -- sometimes even competition in a game can be a good discharge.  This release can lead to some relief.
