I’ve known this for about a month now, but I think my project is affecting my health in an extremely negative way. Woke up last night and puked even though I wasn’t actively worrying/thinking (contd)

OP, I think as a starting point, you should call in sick tomorrow and see a doctor. Puking in the middle of the night, whether due to anxiety or not, isn’t normal or healthy. Who have you spoken to about your project?

If you feel that no one on your project is listening to your concerns, I would try talking to your career counselor or going through the employee assistance program. Your health is more important than your job and no one should be feeling as stressed as you do over work.

@Accenture 1 actually a coincidence but I have a dr appt on weds. I’ve spoken to my CC, talent leads, and staffing leads, and project lead. Honestly it’s not like there’s too much work or anything, it’s just a bigger combination of factors. Thank you for your advice. :)
