Psychological and Behavioral Symptoms

  • People start feeling anxious about their different tasks, no matter how big or small.
  • At times, people also start showing signs of mild depression, the intensity of which can increase and lead to higher levels.
  • Lack of focus or concentration and a general overwhelmed feeling starts surfacing.
  These psychological symptoms are reflected in people’s behaviors, and you’ll generally notice the following:  
  • A pessimistic outlook on things is more apparent in any situation.
  • People tend to get angry, aggressive, irritable, and have mood swings.
  • One can also see a reduction in the creativity and productivity of the person’s work.
  • The person tends to take more sick days and keeps themselves isolated.
  These signs could mean that people are going through work stress and might have mental health issues. Even if these are not severe, one needs to pay attention and get themselves checked to prevent these issues from progressing.   Although corporate functioning has issues and setbacks, the recent discussions about the topic have spread awareness amongst many employers, and they have begun taking necessary measures to ensure their employees' better physical and mental health.
