Not trying to be critical or anything, but if your incoming can only cover half of your expenses, maybe you need to look at your company's strategy and try to generate more revenue. If you are just starting a company but your saving is not enough to cover your expense until the company starts to make money, maybe you should have saved up more before you do that. If the company has been around for a while but you still have to take money from your bank account to cover its expenses, maybe the business was not a good idea. I' had my company when I was in my early 20s. It wasn't making enough money and I had to take money out from my bank account every month. At the end, I decided it's not worth the stress and I closed down the company once and for all. It was the only way to really lift the burden off my shoulders. If you are only in your 20s but your health is already suffering, it won't be a bad idea to examine what you are doing and try to switch things around. Massage and movies can only supress the pain for a while! It won't cure the problem!
For myself, my choices of "pain killer" are movies, music, reading, and sleep. Sleep was definitely my preferred choice! :p

My business was running 3 years already, and was making good money on the first 2 years. Coz i was doing the electronics supplier before, but due to a lot of competitors came out and cut down the prices.. SO i change my type of business. The problems came out after the new business started.
And my stress also come up since the new business started. I don't want to close this business, coz i believe that will goes good in another year. Just need to pass the "過度期".
I think it was good thing that i made my first 150000 on the first 2 years. And now i have capitals to run this new business. However when u keep taking out money from bank to support the new business, no even you have "Huge savings" or not. It still gives you stress & pressure.
I think you are right, try to change the strategy. That is what i need & must do right now.
So what kind of your business was running before? Want to share?
You can try to cut down some of the costs. Owning a business will bring a lot of stress. I have my own restaurant too and I already have a lot of stress.
I usually just do not think about it after work. I spent my leisure time with my wife and do thing together with her. Of course listing to music and sleeping do help a lot.
If seeing bank account will bring you stress, try not to look so often lo.
