nauseating stress

Recently, I'm discovering stress to a new level.

Maybe it's the sudden onslaught of everything happening together, which resulted in a load of deadlines to be completed within recent & upcoming weeks...maybe it's the lack of sleep/rest...maybe I'm not planning my time well...maybe age is catching up?

In any case, I don't think I've ever felt like this before. The heavy-laden heart? Maybe...but the nausea as a result? It's a first.
These past few weeks I seemed to be really overwhelmed and it feels like my chest seems to be congested, like there's something blocking the airway and worst of all, it made me feel nauseous. Not that I actually puked, but you know the feeling. This seems really bad. I might start crying soon.

*sigh* Sometimes it's tough to want to do everything at its best...maybe because I can be a perfectionist at times. And once I start on something, I want to see it to completion in one way or another. The woes of a responsible person. :P

I hope I can let go of some things when they eventually move out of my hands and that they will still be able to "live". Of course I do let go of things once in a while, when I suddenly say to myself, what's the point? That is probably when I become restless & indifferent. Haha...bad for me as a career move, but I need to slack once in a while.
