After yesterday’s post about RealAge.com, I started wondering if I could find any information on what exactly happens to your body when you are in debt.
I found a very interesting article via Gearing Up Consultants, Presenters and Psychologists. Here’s an exerpt:
“Dr. Sylvia: Without a doubt, financial debt is a serious trap millions of people experience. Debt leaves you with a feeling of imminent doom, overwhelming stress and as a result more health problems. Research has tied stress to health problems including high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and stomach disorders such as colitis Overtime, chronic debt leads to chronic worry. We eat too much, smoke too much, drink too much and generally torture ourselves to death over what we owe!”
If you get a chance, please check out the full article, Debt Got You Down? Ask Your Body. At the end, Dr. Sylvia gives a few recommendations for those struggling with debt.
