Hi, Anon, and welcome to EmpowHer. Thank you for your question.
I'm sorry you're having to go through the worry over a late period. But even though you are never late, that could be what's happening now. Since you were careful with the condom, my guess is that you're just having some sort of a hormonal blip this month and it's causing a delay.
Stress can, indeed, cause a period to go late. Also, any large change in medicine, diet, exercise etc can affect it. If you've been very busy at work, perhaps other things about your routine have also changed?
I would give it a few days before you worry too much. And since you are usually very regular, perhaps take a home pregnancy test if you go a week late.
