How do you deal with mental stress?
Good afternoon!
I started with programming, and recently I realized that interface design is my thing and now I'm doing it. So the question is - everyone has situations when the boss / customer criticizes your work so much that you don’t know what to do, even if you sell books on the street? And if anyone has the same, share how you deal with it.

Went into his own business. There are no investors, there are a lot of clients, so they don’t get much.
First, I don't stress. The bosses get angry, criticize me - I pass it on deaf ears.
Secondly, if all the same, "zadolbali", then I take a tablet and draw.
It is easier with the authorities - you need to come up a couple of times a day and ask for their authoritative opinion on solving the problem.
Even it has already been decided.
Because the boss, like a woman, must feel his need.
With customers, such a trick does not always work, but it happens.
And with a load, who knows how: you can get staggered, you can go for a ride on a bike, some jam the problem - the main thing is to get distracted.
It helped me personally in duke or in need4speed to kick opponents ass.
And by the way, it helps to have meaning in life.

I close my eyes and breathe out slowly through my nose. The university has developed immunity to this. There, for 6 years, they have been excellently taught to prove that you, simply, are not shit.
In general, I immediately remembered the video www.youtube.com/watch?v=E831p0ZeYBE
1) the load is diluted by switching to rest, personal interests, etc.
2) with criticism I try to work towards finding the correct compromise, taking into account current trends
I try to distract myself - either I reread dilbert , or I cut myself into some kind of toy (or UT , or recently Prime ).
Once I was so driven that I went, took a bottle of my favorite dark, sat on the boulevard, breathed, calmed down.

I drive the second disc every day before going to bed, well, meditation anywhere when there is time
Haven't played in a hundred years, but now sometimes I let off steam in call of duty
Friends, thank you very much for your support - very interesting advice, but I was hinted that services of this kind are not yet welcome in the company. Still, I'm going to sell old Java books in the yard and steal food from children at McDonald's (:
On the contrary, I do not like praise, I like it when I am criticized.
This allows me to relax.

Watch every morning and before bed is a must!
I try not to react to emotional criticism with emotions, this is a dead end path. I just understand that a person is under emotions and therefore he is not fully adequate to the situation. In any case, I always try to understand a person, why he criticizes me, whether there really are my mistakes, what they are. More on the situation. If you are confident in your qualifications and think that you did everything right, then this is one thing. If you are criticized on the case, then this is a signal to you that you need to raise the level, and do not pay attention to the emotions of the critic. You need to use any situation as efficiently as possible for your goals.
The main problem is that it is difficult not to respond with emotions to emotions. Even if you didn’t say anything, there were still most likely negative emotions that, for example, prompted you to ask this question. You just kept them. Meditation helps me work with emotions. If, nevertheless, stress has arisen, then physical. loads (bike, rocking chair) relieve this condition well, the main thing is not to load yourself again later.
If they criticize on the case, then this is an incentive for development. We take and correct those corners that are not even with us.
If they criticize not for the cause, but for some kind of donkey stubbornness or something else. Then we change jobs.
Fighting "authoritative" criticism of interfaces is actually very simple: usability testing.
You gather representatives of user groups, give them tasks, and document them. If the end users did it, the critics go to one place :)
If they continue to insist on changes, you say “ok, give us money, we will test your proposal – if there is an improvement in the results, then we will apply it.” After this argument, they already shut up for sure.
