High Anxiety

I've been feeling a little anxious about my job, and that anxiety kind of spills over into my life. January through March are typically the toughest months for me, and this year has provided very little reason to become an exception. It just feels like I can't keep up with things; that I don't know how to properly manage my time or my tasks. It becomes a spiral because I worry about it so much that I can't relax when I'm at home, then I feel exhausted and defeated before I start my day. I'm exagerating. I just feel like what I'm doing doesn't stick. My accomplishments aren't fulfilling (they can't always be) and my leisure seems misspent. I worry about the spelling of words that no one will see or mark. This is how pains become cancer.
