You routinely take on more work than you can manage because you enjoy pressure, even when it causes burnout and tiredness.
When you're not occupied, you experience uneasiness or guilt and find it difficult to unwind or relish peaceful periods without finding something demanding to perform.
When you prioritize work or stressful activities, basic self-care practices like sleep, nutrition, and exercise are neglected, which can have a negative impact on your health.
Persistent stress causes you to feel tense, easily agitated, and nervous, even in circumstances that don't call for these feelings.
Relationships suffer or become strained as a result of your attention being diverted from stressful duties to ones that require little time or energy.
Chaotic or high-stress environments give you more energy, and you might even actively seek out problems to feel driven or productive.
It's common to ignore or write off symptoms associated to stress, such as headaches and weariness, even when they indicate your body is having trouble.
