Can you
enjoy life when you're not at work? If the answer is no, you
may be in the danger zone. Too much dedication to work can
lead to lost bad health, relationships, and emotional
problems. Although similar to an addiction, it also fits the
description of an obsessive-compulsive disorder. The work
addict thinks about work all the time. He (or she) is a
compulsive list maker, regularly works overtime, and refuses
to take time off. Personal relationships no longer exists.
Attempts to quit the addiction usually fail. Workaholics are
physically exhausted and may have trouble sleeping, and
become stressed. With pagers and cellular phones, it is
difficult to escape the call of work.
Workaholics
think about work all the time. They tend to emphasize logic
over feelings. Recommended changes include learning how to
relax, some exercise, to consider the our family, and to
take care of our own needs.
Like drug
addiction, workaholics deny their addiction. They may
justify their work and say how they can stop anytime.

way to recognize that some things in life simply are more

Experts
say that too much work can mask anxiety, low self-esteem,
and intimacy problems. And as with addictions to alcohol,
drugs or gambling, workaholics' denial and destructive
behavior will persist despite feedback, health symptoms can
easily go unrecognized. Self hypnosis is the best tool to
use to avoid these problems
A
workaholic needs goals to aim for, and as he's approaching
his goal, he needs the next goal. Being a workaholic can be
detrimental to work itself, the workaholic's perfectionism
leads to obsession and ultimately to narcissism. Children of
workaholics are more depressed, behaving like responsible
adults in place of their absent parent.
