I get it.
Do you have any stress-reduction strategies that you can utilize?
Deep-breathing techniques are something you can utilize quickly and practically anywhere and especially if you have an office or a desk job.
Do you exercise? Even a walk can help.
Hobbies?
I see that one of your children was causing some anxiety. Maybe surf the net for child-psychology tips. Quite often, they are just looking for a 'response'; if you smile and stay calm when he expects to see you become frustrated, the behavior may stop. Kids are smart, perceptive and observant and they learn how and when to push buttons.

Just so you know, she'll prolly want one big one tomorrow, keep smiling 
Serious , they did some kind of study, when you smile even if its forced it can have positive effects on mood. Personally I think it's silly, just thinking about it makes me laugh.
