Stress from Work

I wish there's a magic wand. one that would, with one swipe, turn all the stress into peacefulness.

I keep telling myself: why are you so stressed out? why are you letting the outside world affect you so much? You are going to die, with or without stressing out. You will not take anything with you from this world. You will not be affected by all the stress you keep adding into your life. Once you snap out of this world, nothing will seem worthy. But then, how can i feel alive if i am not affected with what's going on around me? how can  I be sure that i really exist if i do not react? You can tell me now, that i can react, but not in a stressful way. But how? if my manager comes and tells me that he wants this task to be my top priority, and then he adds another task, telling that this one is also a priority, then another person comes and stands by my desk and ask me to get him some information, which, as far as he is concern, is just a number which i can easily get. Now how can i react to that in a stress free way? How can I avoid snapping in their faces and telling them that this is becoming too much?

Do they even care if this is too much for me to handle? Do they even blink when seeing me red like a tomato, stuck on my chair tapping my leg nervously on the floor because of my agonizing need to go and pee but i can telling myself: once i finish this, i will go and pee!!!!

Believe me guys, it gets this intense. Now how am i supposed to deal with all this stress? I know you might tell me, that i need to be assertive. trust me, i have tried this and all I got in return is this empty look and this emotionless sentence: where's you "Can- Do attitude?" Are you freaking serious???? All this and you tell me I lack my can do attitude? well i left him at home with my brain when i decided to stay in this stressful job...

so please, if any of you out there have a technique that i can use to manage the stress i endure at work, please, please share it with me...
