Three Quarters Of Workers (And Many Schoolkids) Get The ‘Sunday Scaries’

Monday, September 1, 2025 at 8:00 PM

Three-quarters of workers and many schoolchildren experience the "Sunday Scaries" - anxiety and dread about the upcoming week. A survey found 31% of affected workers feel this way most Sundays, with symptoms like overthinking the week ahead and a sense of foreboding starting around 5:17pm. Additionally, 67% of parents have noticed similar behaviors in their kids before the new school year. To combat the "Sunday Scaries," people use distractions like TV, walks, or music. Top concerns include workload, to-do lists, and big meetings. 25% say they don't know how to shake these feelings, though some say an exercise routine can help energize them for the week ahead.
