“Do you suffer from permanent, increased tension, from being driven internally or externally? Do you feel overwhelmed? Do you feel hectic, aimless and a loss of overview? Are concentration and memory impaired? Then you probably have a stress problem.
Symptoms of an anxiety disorder, on the other hand, would include: tightness, a feeling of having to take a deep breath, palpitations, sweating, and negative thoughts or fantasies that involve threats.
Depression is characterized by low spirits, listlessness, feelings of meaninglessness and hopelessness combined with an inability to enjoy beautiful things in the usual way.
If you believe that complaints of this type are primarily caused by being overwhelmed at work, then you can also speak of a burnout syndrome.
All of these ailments are treatable and reversible.”
