I thought in these times of economic confusion that this might be a proper thread to, well you know help people out that are facing a ton of job stresses from layoff possibilites, to increased workload through to layoffs, to even those people that have lost their jobs, and their new work is finding work.

The other reason is that I seem to be having trouble with my stress points in my life and it would be nice to get some ideas, because the concept of not taking it home for example is not working.

Personally, I run a one man department, with the majority of the work involving sales to our existing client base. This would be easy selling except that I seem to be getting work thrown on my desk that shouldn't involve me, however one man department. I also stress because I worry about the implementation of what I sell.

I've lost any appetite to eat, I try to work out to burn off stressfull energy, and I don't sleep very well anymore, I'm usually up at 3 in the morning staring at the ceiling and worrying about the next day.

I would do the hooker and blow thing, but if I spend money on that, then my nest egg gets eaten away in a hurry.

How do people not take work away from work?

How can I reduce the care factor like some of my coworkers?

Anyways, surely I'm not alone in feeling this way?
