I think I'm workaholic?!
Question: I think I'm workaholic!?
I have a real problem showing my personality to people and I'm not really sure why!. Well, I do know one thing - I'm a workaholic!. Most of the time I feel as though I don't deserve to go out with my friends or just enjoy myself if I havn't reached certain goals in life!. I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes I just think - really, why should I go to that movie with my friends if I have all this work to do!. Sometimes, I'm not even that productive when working!. I'll even watch television,etc!. but if a friend asks me to do something that is fun like movies, dinner, etc!. I say no I can't!.!.!. I'm really not sure how to break out of this cycle or if I should at all!. I'm at a point in my life where studying is more important than anything!.!.!. Perhaps these are temptations and I just need to ride out the storm!?

First of all people are different, and along with our differences we think differently!. I'd say I'm, kinda like you, sometimes i feel that i shouldn't be doing something that i would enjoy, or better yet consume my precious "TIME" that i would rather spend on finishing those heaps of things to do!. Its hard for a person like me to be doing something enjoyable to take my mind off the things that I'm supposed to be doing, It feels like you're just delaying them and you know that there is no one else to do it!. Thats why i try to keep a good schedule of my time, plan things out and keep things on a good track!. I don't think there is anything serious with what you're doing!. It wouldn't hurt to have fun sometimes though, i bet it would do you some good, after you've finished all your work that is!. The feeling of contentment is a nice feeling after hard work!. Perhaps you should reward yourself after each successful task you complete!. And as long as your friends understand the way you feel, they'll know you for who you are!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Have you considered making short term goals as well!? Giving yourself a reward for completing them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Likely if you are a true workaholic it is for one of two reasons!. One, you feel fulfilled while working and don't want that feeling to end!. Or two, you are worried about money or job safety so you put too much of yourself into your work!. Either reason is rational in moderation!. You have to make time for yourself!. You need those times to get out, forget about work, and enjoy the company of other people!. Also, your friends will only put up with your turning them down for so long, then they'll stop asking and you'll end up without friends!. That's a lonely place to be!.
If you are feeling as if you don't "deserve" to go out with your friends, that could surely be classified as depression!. You should analyze that thinking some more!. It would be really helpful to talk to some kind of therapist for some life direction!.
Give yourself a break! Sometimes you need to fake it 'till you make it!.!.!.
