Is work greater than life? As a human being and also as a mental health professional, this question baffles me quite a lot. Because generally most if not all will say Life is greater and work is just an aspect, but are we really able to make this segregation? We're spending most of our times in our workplace nowadays. The environment we work in and the people we work with have an immense impact on our mental health and wellbeing. Companies need to realise that people aren't machines, they have feelings and emotions, they have a body to take care of and family and friends to spend time with. Working for ridiculously long hours with immense workload will make people vulnerable, sooner or later. When I see family, friends, loved ones working day and night, staring at their laptops, tired and frustrated, yet not able to sleep or take a break because they've a deadline waiting for them, it scares me. To anyone who's reading this, please take care of yourself. Try to strive a healthy work life balance (even if the deadline is right around the corner, take a nap) and when it gets too much, take a break, relax, rethink and restart your journey. Because at the end work is just an aspect of life. 💫
