I have worked for a long, long time as many of you have, I am sure.

Lately, when I have to return to work after the week-end, I find myself feeling very depressed, nervous, sick to my stomach, full of anxiety - dread -- you name it.

The place where I work has experienced a lot of changes in the last few months and it's gotten even more stresstful than usual. I am having a hard time handling it.

I can't quit. I need this job. I am hoping that this current round of more stressful events will soon pass and just the usual amount of stress will return. But in the meantime, what can I do to get myself to handle it better?

Has anyone ever felt this way about a job or a job situation?

Even at night when I come home from work every day, I am so exhausted -- mentally and physically --- I just want to cry or scream. My head is pounding, my stomach is upset. I don't sleep well. I have a lot of health problems and my DH does as well, so I have all of this to contend with. Could I be ready for a break-down or what? I don't seem to be able to talk myself through this or out of it.

Thank you so much.
