occassionally depending on the day I can overwhelmed and just need a few minutes break from all the mayhem to relax and recharge, does anyone know of a few of theses spots in Hollywood Studios?
 
HS is a bit tough because it's smaller than the other parks and is usually crowded, but I like One Man's Dream for that. It's usually fairly lowkey. Animation Courtyard and Launch Bay are basically dead mall at this point and are also good places to get away from people.
 
Like other's have said HS is tough for that. Good options mentioned already. If you don't need total complete silence and don't mind being outside, there are lots of benches around the lake and depending on the time of day those aren't too crowded. Kind of back toward where you get off ToT by the Jeoffry's cart it's sometimes kind of less crowded and there are a few benches. If you go into the gift shop at ToT and keep going to where the ride exists there is a little area with seats and people aren't usually there unless the ride just got off. Also toward ToT at one of the outside seating places for the QS there is a little corner kind of tucked around the side near the victory garden. Right beside Brown Derby there are some outside tables that used to be for a little food service place and there aren't a lot of people there very often, bonus there are umbrellas at the tables. Where MMRR exits there is a little spot sort of tucked to the left side. No seating but under cover and rarely anyone there.
 

Some of the areas that used to be for smoking are still there. In the MK by Big Thunder Mt. and Tom Sawyer rafts is a beautiful area to watch the river, etc. There are ducks, often with babies, that walk right up to you. Also in the MK is a walking path from the train station in Tomorrowland to Fantasyland. It is uncrowded and has benches along the way.
 
I will second the suggestion of One Man's Dream.

There is, I believe it is still there, an outside seating area for Backlot Express next to the back of the Indiana Jones Stunt Show that, depending on the day and the weather, might be a quieter spot to sit and have a drink/snack.
 
The area around ABC Commissary can be quiet. There is shade and a few places to sit. We spent a few minutes resting there during our last trip, and loved it.
 
You could also possibly exit the park, and find a quiet spot by the water. There used to be benches there. I'm not sure if they are still there. Not 100% sure if the benches are still there. Anyone who exits the park can re-enter on the same day.

If that are is not quiet enough, there are some very nice quiet spots if you walk a little further on the path towards the Boardwalk. (Just around past where the Skyliner is). Or for that matter, you could also take a short trip on the Skyliner over the CBR. It's a pretty short round trip.

Inside the park, first aid comes to mind.

In the morning, you can duck in by the bathroom area of Brown Derby, and there is a quiet area there to the left of the reception area. I am saying by the bathroom, but you have to walk a bit to get the bathroom. That whole part of the building is pretty quiet, and it is pretty. I think during lunch/dinner it gets busier, but in the morning, it is empty. I took some nice photos in there.

Also for Hollywood Studios in particular I recommend Star Wars Launch Bay. Quiet, dark, cool.
