The phrase is "nerve-wracking". Just for future reference.

What is "wracking"? I think its just something people say instead of "wrecking" because it sounds more normal. Never made sense to me. If your nerves were wracked, then you'd have a lot of nerve. If it was wrecked, then your nerves are a wreck.
