Beware of Autumn Anxiety

Feeling increasingly overwhelmed or stressed lately? Autumn anxiety could be the cause.

Healthline indicates that many individuals experience intense anxiety during the fall season for many reasons, such as anticipating the stress associated with the holidays or grappling with the failure of not completing a goal this summer. Changes could manifest in fatigue, excessive worry, headaches, nausea, loss of appetite, lack of concentration, constant sweating or sleep issues.

In some cases, increased anxiety can lead to severe depression. Keep in mind that depression, especially in combination with other severe chronic illness, can affect one’s ability to work. If you have a health condition that prevents you from working, you may want to apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits.

To check your likelihood of SSDI eligibility, take the free assessment here.
