The Impact Of Money Worries
It’s important not to underestimate the psychological strain that money worries are capable of inflicting on you.
Financial stress is a major risk factor for poor mental health. Not having enough money to cover basic expenses, having a fluctuating and/or insecure income and carrying high levels of debt or mortgage stress causes mental distress for many people. In fact, one in five UK adults say that they feel like they are ‘drowning’ in debt and money worries.
Having money worries, regardless of the reason, can have a large impact on your mental and physical health. That’s why it’s important to take action and to get support as soon as possible.
