Frequently Asked Questions

Is workaholism a real addiction?
Andreassen et al. (2012, 2014) argue YES: it shares the 7 core components of addiction (salience, mood modification, tolerance, withdrawal, conflict, problems, relapse). Like behavioral addictions (gambling, gaming) it's NOT in DSM-5 but well-documented. Distinct from "high-engagement work" — which lacks the compulsion + harm.
Working hard ≠ workaholism. What's the difference?
High-engagement: you choose to work hard, derive joy, can stop. Workaholism: compulsive, work to escape negative feelings, withdrawal symptoms (anxiety, restlessness) when not working, harms relationships/health. Bergen scale measures the addiction-pattern, not the hours.
I scored high. What now?
(1) Track outcomes: hours vs sleep, mood, relationships. (2) Identify trigger: anxiety? avoidance? identity? Workaholism is often coping mechanism. (3) Set firm boundary: e.g. no laptop after 7pm, no weekend email. (4) Therapy if avoidance pattern: CBT or Schema Therapy. (5) Replace, don't just remove: build hobby identity outside work. Often takes 1-2 years.
