    Much like Teddy. Can't beat a good book. Comfy clothes, comfortable seat, obvious stuff like that. If you can't have a drop of wine or something with a film then maybe cook something you like to treat yourself.
    If all else fails go to bed and pan out.

    Lie down and watch a good film. Or go to the swimming pool and just relax.

    Ah yeah, nothing like voluntarily indulging oneself in a debilitating anxiety based mental illness to chill out.

    What? Like Compulsive Obsessive Disorder? :D

    Or did you mean illnesses?

    I personally chill in full effect :cool:

    A 3D movie and a few- by few I mean many - beers. God, to think I ever thought I was jumping the gun by buying that 3D screen.

    One of the best purchases I've ever made.

    A beach walk
    A film or doco
    An art book and some life painting
    A Classic book while listening to some Wagner
    A bit of porno while I am pulling the stomach out of myself.

    Watching reruns of Friends, going shopping for stuff I don't need, going for a swim, painting my nails, sitting in a coffee shop for ages with a cup of tea and a magazine, visiting friends, going to the cinema, sitting in my parents' house on a Sunday reading dozens of newspapers whilst sitting on the couch.

    Unfortunately I barely have time to do any of these things anymore :(

    I turn off the mobile, plug out the landline, pull the curtains and lock the doors. I then have drinks and listen to my music and drift away into another world.

    I have a big collection of books on topics that interest me, that I don't allow others to touch, lest they suck the knowledge from them. I'll make a coffee and pick a book to read. But I think browsing the books on the shelf above and around the desk is the most relaxing part.

    The rest of my day is spent being super cool.

    I play Gears of War 3. Nothing more relaxing than cutting someone in half with a chainsaw mounted on a chainsaw on the xbox.
