Looks like its same with me. I feel sick when i dont have work to do. I feel happy when i work, as long as it is rewarding for my labor and not over stressing.
Yes I must confess that I am workaholic, even at my age (82) I still want to write more books, learn more about many different topics and I could not live without it…highly enjoyable!
I do not appreciate the word '' Workaholic'' as any individual who works for his action of any life & if he desires to complete his work on a prescribe time he may not called workaholic for other hand he is very much careful regarding his timing & completion of work .
Work addiction is one type of addiction experienced by some people without realizing the magnitude of the problem and its impact on their social, psychological and emotional life.
After graduate school experience with intensive research one become addicted to be up and doing at all times. I feel happy when I have work to do. Become redundant is boring.
