Dragonfly

But ever since week 3 of training and now all this week whenever i'm not actually taking calls I've been extremely queasy almost to the point of losing my lunch.
It's not necessarily the calls. I get on the phones and I bang through them, but it's only week 1 of me actually being ON the phones and I keep screwing up in small ways. It's gotten to the point where I feel so queasy that I don't want to eat and I'm having to force myself to. That resulted in me being starving when I left work at 11 last night, and I can see it possibly sending me for a nasty low blood-sugar spiral in the future. :( A brain-dead Dragonfly on the phones be not good.
Any suggestions? Bestimus friend Foxglove has graced me with a massage gift certificate and I'm considering making that a weekly treat that I give myself to help keep me relaxed. I am drinking a lot of water, staying away from caffeine and extra sugar. Doing my best to eat healthy and not dive in to junk food, as all of this could possibly bring on depression. But anything else you can suggest would be awesome. Even sitting here, knowing I can get on those phones and handle most anything that comes my way, my stomach is just rolling.
Thus far the only thing I've discovered that utterly gets rid of the feeling is to keep myself completely distracted by doing chores around the house or running errands. But that's been hell on my energy and my wallet with having to get extra gas.
Thanks for your suggestions, guys.
