Hi,

Congrats on the year sober! I just hit a Year and a half, and definitely needed new ways to deal with stress. Exercise and mindfulness have been my go to strategies. There are lots of great apps for mindfulness and meditation.

After some time smoke-free I'd imagine the stress will be less/easier to deal with. I was a smoker and quitting helped a lot.
