The acid started to eat away at the metal

Hey, I've been feeling so stressed lately, like the worries are just... eating away at me. Do you have any tips for managing stress?
Oh, I totally get that! When I get stressed, I try to exercise or spend time outside. Sometimes it helps, sometimes not. What kind of things are stressing you out specifically?
That's good advice! For me, it's mostly work deadlines and financial anxieties. Has that ever made you feel like your confidence started to eat away as well?
