I recently felt the pinch of stress at work...it wasn't due to being overworked though - it was due to being overstressed, due to insane work deadlines that had me concerned about getting stuff done on time. I'm starting to balance that aspect of my life better, with the realization that I shouldn't drive myself crazy just to meet the deadlines given to me. It's ok to let deadlines slip by if they were unreasonable to begin with, but still do the best I reasonably can.
