Do you know what drives you to work so hard and so long? Sometimes I use things to avoid dealing with other things. It works for a while, but for me, once I finally decide to stop and deal, it helps a lot of other areas in my life too.
If I am always busy, I don't have to think about the fact that I have no peace in my brain. The catch is that the thing I want most is peace in my brain.
I don't know that this is relevant to you, but just thought I'd throw it out there.
