There should be a 12 step program for perfectionism...

My husband thinks my stress level is going to cause me to have major health problems in the future, but this is just how I have always been. I keep telling him that in two weeks I'll get my grades and then I won't be stressed anymore. (But then again, I always find *something* to worry about.) At least I am better about it than I used to be...
