Ian, why aren't we brothers? Damned, I don't think I've ever heard such familiar words from anyone's head but my own. Actually, I have no profound philosophy for you, as I've still not yet beaten it in myself, but what I can say is this. I've found, in my vast experience attempting suicide by overworking and caring insufficiently for my health, that there is a line one can cross, where one works more, and longer than others believe possible, but works so much that one does gain nothing from it. Sometimes, too much work will send you backward. Freakin' weird. Maybe we'll get past this, someday. Solidarity, brother. We can do it. I hope.
Overexertion, It's where fun begins.
