Work in sales and cannot wind down!

Anyone else work in high pressured sales jobs and feel shell shocked at the end of a shift?
Today was particularly bad. Massive £££ order was won at lunch time, was on a tight deadline as money needed to be in before 3pm due to bank holiday, all the internet went down and 10 people's commission was resting on the sale going through.
I've just walked in the door and I'm so wound up and twitchy.
What do people do to unwind and unclench at the end of a shift? I don't drink, so not that!!! I can't stop buzzing, and not in a good way!!!

Spent hours on the phone to IT, then internet providers. Was trying to hot spot a whole computer network onto a mobile phone (which didn't work!)
Staff going crazy about potentially losing commission which they'd worked on for months.
About 20 phone calls to the big bosses.
Very stressful.

...did you succeed?

If yes then I'd be celebrating. If not, commiserating with myself...

But I liked that feeling when it went well!
