Late March Monte Report

For the most part, things are still quite ducky. Away from work, I've had energy and enthusiasm for the things in my life -- and that part is getting better all the time. That's the good news. The bad news is that my job is getting more and more stressful with each passing day. I don't take it home with me (not usually, at least) -- so that's good. But at the peak stress moments at work I feel as though I am on the brink of breaking down -- like I might just snap all of a sudden and have to walk away from my job temporarily. That part is getting worse with each passing day, and the light at the end of that tunnel is very, very dim. I communicate well with my supervisor, so he at least is aware of my situation, and we try to arrange my workload in such a way as to minimize my exposure to excessive stress. But how long will that system work? And what happens next week when my supervisor is on vacation?

So who knows? Despite the fact that I'm doing so well, I might just have a nervous breakdown after all. Wouldn't that be ironic? Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
