Short description: Anxiety about the start of the working week
Sunday scaries, also known as the Sunday syndrome, Sunday blues, Sunday night dread or Sunday evening feeling, refer to anticipatory anxiety and dread [1] that may occur on Sundays for employees as the weekend ends, and the workweek resumes on Monday.[2] This feeling may arise from avoidance motivation stress of mental preparation for the upcoming week's workload, processing the prior week's workload, and the challenge of maintaining work–life balance.[3][4]
