 Stressed out: The typical adult spends a year and a half of their life worrying. |
|
Stressed Britons spend 36 minutes every day wallowing in despair, a study has revealed. The typical adult spends a year and a half of their life worrying, with the high cost of living, feeling out of shape and mounting debt the most common causes for concern. Researchers discovered getting old, job security and a dire sex life also leave a dark cloud looming over millions of us. The study also found extreme anxiety has meant many people are distracted at work, enduring sleepless nights and even suffering rifts with their partners. One in 10 felt restless for more than two hours a day, while one in two worries so much their health has suffered. 'A large chunk of the nation feels considerably worried and people are wasting far too much time stressing about things, ' said a spokesman from the Everyman Campaign, which carried out the study. 'Money is dominating most of people’s thoughts - whether it’s mounting debt, how they’re going to pay their next set of bills or the fact they’ll never become financially secure. 'It's interesting to see how gaining weight is more of a concern than job security, and that petrol prices take priority over people’s sex lives. 'Work apprehensions also feature heavily in the top 50 list - feeling stressed and faced with unmanageable workloads and awkward bosses. ' The study of 2,000 British adults aged between 18 and 65 was carried out to mark the launch of Everyman’s Male Cancer Awareness Month. It found the average adult spends nine whole days a year worrying - which totals one year and six months during their life. Four in 10 are stressed about debt, a quarter are concerned that they are 'not living life to the full' and one in five is troubled about family members falling ill. The survey found three in 10 have become depressed due to their worrying, one in 10 admits it has affected their relationship with their kids and one in 20 has lost friends. (Read by Lee Hannon.

一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，壓力重重的英國(guó)人每天有36分鐘在焦慮中度過。 英國(guó)成人通常一生中有一年半的時(shí)間在煩惱，煩惱的原因大多是生活成本高、覺得身體狀況不佳或是債臺(tái)高筑。 研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，變老、工作不穩(wěn)定、性生活很糟也會(huì)讓數(shù)百萬英國(guó)人心頭陰云密布。 研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)，極度焦慮意味著許多人在工作時(shí)不能集中注意力或經(jīng)常失眠，甚至和伴侶的關(guān)系會(huì)產(chǎn)生裂痕。 十分之一的英國(guó)人每天感覺煩躁的時(shí)間超過兩個(gè)小時(shí)，而有半數(shù)的英國(guó)人因?yàn)檫^度煩惱而影響了身體健康。 開展這一研究的“凡人”運(yùn)動(dòng)的發(fā)言人說：“很大一部分國(guó)人都相當(dāng)焦慮，人們浪費(fèi)在煩惱上的時(shí)間太多了。” “金錢問題是給人們?cè)斐勺疃嗬_的問題，不管是堆積如山的債務(wù)，還是如何償付下一次賬單，或是永遠(yuǎn)無法在經(jīng)濟(jì)上獲得保障。” “有趣的是，和工作不穩(wěn)定相比，人們更擔(dān)心體重增加，油價(jià)則比性生活更重要。” “和工作有關(guān)的煩惱在壓力來源前50名中占了很大比重：工作壓力大、不堪承受的工作負(fù)擔(dān)和難以應(yīng)付的上司。” 這項(xiàng)研究涵蓋了2000名年齡在18歲和65歲之間的英國(guó)成人。開展該研究是為了紀(jì)念“凡人”發(fā)起男性癌癥宣傳月活動(dòng)。 研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，一名英國(guó)成人平均每年有整整九天時(shí)間在煩惱中度過，一生中的“煩惱時(shí)光”共是一年零六個(gè)月。 十分之四的英國(guó)人為債務(wù)憂心，四分之一的人擔(dān)心自己沒能“擁有充實(shí)的人生”，五分之一的人因?yàn)榧胰松《l(fā)愁。 調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，十分之三的人因?yàn)檫^度煩惱而感到抑郁，十分之一的人承認(rèn)自己的抑郁情緒已經(jīng)影響到和孩子的感情，還有二十分之一的人為此而失去了朋友。 相關(guān)閱讀 調(diào)查：英國(guó)人的中年危機(jī)提前至35歲 （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮 編輯：馮明惠） |
