Getting over anxiety caused by a random event...

SO, thanks in large part to my husband, I am no longer an anxious person. I don't really worry anymore, and I'm rather happy-go-lucky.

However, this past Sunday I had something I was working on for my boss (on a Sunday, with no notice) which involved me making something that I didn't know how to do and feeling stressed the whole time. It really shook me up a lot- I mean, sobbing crying I was so stressed out. In the end, everything turned out fine, so I don't have to worry with it anymore.

Problem is, it's now Wednesday and I'm STILL feeling shaken up whenever I sit in front of my computer. (I work as a Web Designer so I'm working from home). I feel a little bit nervous and sick to my stomach whenever I check my e-mail. It's not a good feeling, and I'm having trouble shaking it. I know that my boss isn't going to request any more ridiculous stuff from me, and I know now that if he asks me to do something that I don't know how to do, I can say "I don't know how to do that" instead of "I'll figure out how to do that."

But still, I'm still feeling nervous... agitated, restless, and a tad paranoid. This is so unlike me, and I really, really hate it. I was hoping that someone could offer me up some advice about the best way to get over this isolated incident... please?
