What to Buy Your Overworked Pal (or Yourself)

1 2 3 4 5

We all know a person who gets stressed at work. Your 9-to-5 bestie who types like a stomping circus elephant when she’s angry. The friend who frantically texts you from work using a string of four-letter words about the horrific higher-ups she deals with. Or…maybe this person is…YOU (ever find yourself jiggling your foot in a nervous frenzy? Yeah, read on). In honor of Moment of Frustration Day today, here are five items to gift yourself, a favorite coworker or a swamped BFF. They’re all SFW (suitable for work)—because FYI, checking out funnyordie.com all day isn’t.

-Cait Rohan

I wouldn’t give this to your boss or someone who you think has serious issues, but if you have a pal who just needs to stop acting like Eeyore, Lou Harry’s Therapist in a Box ($6.95 on Amazon.com) is a funny (and helpful) prezzie. The kit comes complete with a mini sofa that doubles as a stress-relieving squeeze toy, tongue-in-cheek self-help cards and more. Perfect for those “OMG I just sent a major typo and suck at life” breakdowns.

    Likke the l’occitane’s hand cream trio collection for myself. The dancing leaves flowering tea is cute.

    The tea looks so good. A spike mat is a great way to de-stress from overworking I use one from Lotus NY.

    #3 – I love that brand, good choice, I’m totally gonna get that. The lavendar is so soothing. I do get wound up at work and that would relax me.
