re: Is school more stressful than the workforce?

This is the difference for me, too. I rarely did things on time so it led to a lot of mental uneasiness, as in always thinking "shite, I have this to do."

I work in a hardcore deadline-driven, you hold your weight or you screw us all over type of job and work can be stressful as hell... at work... but for the most part, that's where it ends.

Now, when I first started my job out of college... new location and all, I was mentally stressed even outside of work. Always thinking how I was going to do my job or handle it. 4-5 and now 10 months in, I think of work at work. Or I think positively about it, as in how I can do better and become a better professional.
