Being a psychiatric technician is a very emotionally demanding career. How do you handle stress and pressure?

The interviewer is asking this question to hear more about your stress relief. Do you run marathons? Work out? Do Yoga? Curl up with a good book? Tell the interviewer how you deal with stress both at work and outside of work. The interviewer needs to know that you are not a loose cannon and that you can handle the stress that comes along with being a Psychiatric Technician.
