I couldn't fall asleep for over an hour last night because my mind was spinnig. I woke up the same way. There is no option to not do this. It MUST get done.
Hi Moose,
I can relate. I used to get so nervous when paperwork was both complex and due! I used to have to do alot of work, looking for records, etc. I used to get so incredibly anxious and scared.

In time, I'd eventually realized I could find the necessary credentials/records quickly and with great ease..

You do write about becoming overwhelmed when you are facing an annual review. Yet, you have always done just fine!

Maybe consider changing your internal story? When suddenly becoming anxious and overwhelmed, talk to yourself about what a thorough job you had done last year! Somehow substituting the anxiety and the dread for something more reasonable?

You have always gotten your work done on time.. I'll bet you do a very thorough job, too!

You'll be just fine!
