Mental Health: It sounds like you need to make some decisions. You need to find another job that is less stressful, or you can seek the help of a mental health professional to learn some new ways of coping with stress. There are medications that can help with persistent anxiety, but they don't get at the underlying problem.

Get help: From a psychologist or counselor who treats stress after you get a medical checkup. Your body is giving you strong signals to make changes. Sometimes you can eliminate or change the stressor. Sometimes you have to change your thoughts & perceptions of the situation. It's always helpful to learn stress management & relaxation skills. Counseling and biofeedback can help.
