I think there's a difference between high pressure environment and experiencing anxiety and stress.
I've done months of work in a high pressure environment where my job and the company itself was on the line and experienced the same as you. For about four months I did nothing but work. I was laser focused, sharp and extremely productive. I was fine. I worked long days, did pretty much nothing else but work and sleep.
I've been looking for that kind of focus and productiveness ever since. It's like a drug.
In case you're wondering.. The company is still around. We hit our deadline and grew from three people to almost 40 since. Still there.
