In the words of the iconic Steve Jobs: "The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."
There has been alarming data showing that entrepreneurs are experiencing mental health problems that’s often not addressed
There's a study done by the Canadian Mental Health Association: Going it Alone – The mental health and well-being of Canada’s entrepreneurs.
The impact of entrepreneurial stress not only affects the work of an individual entrepreneur, but also extends to their personal and professional relationships:
Some groups of entrepreneurs were more likely to experience mental health issues than others.
• Female entrepreneurs reported feelings of uncertainty and inadequacy, depressed mood, and feeling overwhelmed with far greater frequency than did male entrepreneurs.
• Entrepreneurs whose businesses are in the earlier or “growth” stage were more likely to report experiences of stress and were more likely to report mental health concerns than their counterparts whose businesses were “mature.”
But how come the numbers are so high for entrepreneurs suffering from mental health problems?
So what’s the solution? How can Entrepreneurs become better at managing their mental health?
