I think I'm replying to what you're feeling, but I may not be, in which case, this should be ignored, probably with prejudice. :)
It sounds like you have too much work to do in the time you have allotted, which is stressing you out.
The slightly weird thing I'll propose is: accept that. "Yes. In fact, I have all these things I need to do. I do not think I have sufficient time."
The trick is really accepting that, but I find that once I do, then the anxiety of the future goes away, which is the cause of the stress. It's a kind of "fear of the unknown", where one isn't sure what exactly will happen, so I think people tend to fear the worst.
Of course, if your boss is a goon, then it's justified... :|
