Entrepreneurs must overcome tremendous pressure every day to build a successful business. As a result, one of the main crises that business people face is the mental health crisis. Anton Merkulov, founder of Health Buddy, an online mentoring service for improving and maintaining health, told socialbites.ca about these and other problems of entrepreneurs.
“Entrepreneurs are twice as likely to be depressed in their lifetime and three times more likely to suffer from substance abuse and addiction, as well as bipolar disorder,” Merkulov said.
He emphasized that businessmen face addictions as well as depression while trying to distract themselves.
“Serial entrepreneurs experience obsessive thoughts, withdrawal, and “emotional swings” of involvement, all of which have a strong negative impact. The expert noted that cardiovascular diseases are also frequently encountered.
According to Anton Merkulov, the diseases of entrepreneurs include insomnia and imbalance of system elements.
“It is important to pay attention to the mutual influence of biochemical processes in the body, vitamin and nutrient balance, hormonal system and the functioning of other body systems on energy levels, creativity, mental stability and success. Long-term stress, spasm of muscles in the body, tense blood vessels can prevent the absorption of certain substances, causing anemia. This always reduces your productivity, even if you have an ideal nutrition plan,” concluded the expert.
