Same here, unless it's something that is a true break from the stress. When I hit something that stops me dead in the water, just the process of breaking it down and completing a part is highly stressful for me. So, for me, its not so much as "Yea! Ice Cream!" as "Thank God I got through that! I need a break ... a nice break." Of course, it gives me an opportunity to distract myself, but I just get too high-strung without those breaks and I wind up bouncing (one leg, both legs, arms, entire body...) to the point of distraction.
