I talked to my doctor today. I had a high pressure work assignment a couple of weeks ago. The first thought after amazingly pulling it off was, "I want to [word I cant say in this forum]." He said think about other times in my past I have felt like this then we ran out of time. I've been feeling quite down after this conversation and want to know what I can do to feel better. Thanks for your feedback.
