Most U.K. adults are stressed in the morning
U.K.’s Rescue Remedy, a brand of stress-relief products, conducted a small survey that revealed something interesting. On average, these 2,000 adults were most stressed around 7:23 a.m. Why? It actually varies from person to person, but many cited good reasons.
Along with this result, they also asked the same adults what makes them feel stressed in the morning (or whenever they said the problem was at its worst).
Some of the most popular answers? Number one was getting stuck in traffic.
Here are a few more reasons people feel stressed in the early morning:
- Mishaps like spilled coffee.
