“Not being able to enjoy your Sunday or do anything on the day because your mind is cripplingly preoccupied with the week ahead means that there is probably a bigger issue at hand,” Tomlinson tells Stylist. “Anxiety or panic attacks are also good indicators that there is a bigger issue at hand.”

If every Sunday you’re an anxious wreck, with ruminating thoughts, extreme worries, or physical symptoms of anxiety such as nausea and headaches, this isn’t something you should ignore.

It can be helpful to dig deeper into the specifics of your Monday dread, too. It’s OK to not be bouncing eagerly back into the office – after all, the weekend was probably fun and you’d quite like to do more relaxation activities. What’s not so OK are dark thoughts about how miserable you’re going to be during the work week or worries that aren’t rooted in reality.

Wait, are your Sunday scaries an anxiety issue in disguise?
