Thank you for the advice, fren.
When I was here on Sunday at least a few Anons suggested that it might be related to vitamin and/or mineral deficiency. While I am almost certain that it is stress-related, I do have terrible eating habits (basically Cheerios, Red Bull & cigs for the past few months) and I was counseled about that as well, was advised to lay of the Red Bull and to try Niacin (among other things), which I plan to look for in the morning after work. 
I sincerely appreciate the sound advice, Anon.
