You wake up a little later, sipping coffee in the morning run, a bath in a hurry, and realize that it is so late for work. In business, a lot of pressure to deliver a report that was to be ready a few minutes. At lunch, barely enough time to eat. Not to mention the rest of the day ... With so much, you can develop a new problem: the so-called hurry sickness.

This is one of so-called "diseases of modern life." According to a survey by Brazil Stress Management Association (ISMA-BR) in 2006, 30% of the economically active population of the country suffers from this evil (see other information about the survey at the end of the story). The symptoms are clear. Irritability, impatience, competitiveness, muscle tension, rapid speech and hostility. Together, these factors also generate the famous stress. According to the president of ISMA-BR, a psychologist expert in stress Ana Maria Rossi, hurry sickness is associated with the need to always be running even when there is no need for that. "People are conditioned to run past it most. Even on weekends and holidays they run without" strengthens.

People who have this disease have difficulty saying no, according to Ana Maria Rossi. "One of the basic features is that they are multi-piece rate, so many things at once. They dance at any moment in time, becoming true slaves of the clock," he says.

According to Professor of Sociology at the University of Brasília (UnB) Sadi Del Rosso, the consequences of the disease are linked to the nervous system. "People can not stand the pace of activities and how these problems arise due to the pressures of the head of the desktop, and can cause other complications to emotional or gastritis," explains the professor.
Origins
The reasons for such run are varied, all the inherent rhythm of life in modern society, experts say. The feeling that people are always late is common. Pensioner Maria Letícia da Silva says he lives by looking at the clock, even without an apparent need. "We do all running today, is not to take life easy," he explains.

The psychiatrist and also a professor at UNB Raphael Boechat explains that the rush is an essential characteristic of large urban centers, unlike what happens in rural areas. "In the cities humans impose their own standards of behavior and cause people to live in different times," he says.

And the main culprit for the daily run, according to Professor Sadi Del Rosso, is the work. He wrote several books on the subject and says that in addition to time devoted to the profession, the recovery in the corporate environment today is very large. "If you add up the hours that remains in working with the travel time to and back it, it takes 40% to 50% of the time of our lives," he points out.

But then you can ask people now spend less time on the desktop than a few years. In the nineteenth century, for example, was common to work ten to twelve hours a day. So today occupy a smaller part of life with the professional dedication. Sadi Del Rosso said that the situation is quite different. "The charges today are far greater. Do you see anyone doing three, four or five things at once. These multi-functions are appearing in all workplaces. It is a characteristic of modernity. Today you produce more in a given period of time, unlike what happened before, "says Professor specialist work.

The custom of always being rushed leads many people to be proud of this day to day. Busy schedule has become synonymous with importance for some. But the health problems that can appear to take only one answer: we must seek a more peaceful life, as far as possible. "It is important that people realize you are with the disease of the pressure to become aware and change their behavior," says Ana Maria Rossi. Relaxation techniques and physical exercise are recommended. It is essential to understand their own limitations and seek quality of life.

Early
In childhood stress is present. Children and adolescents in the modern world are forced to develop different activities simultaneously. Besides the school, there are courses in English, Spanish, the school of sports, music, the course for college entrance, college, and so on. A student of Directors Sara Gomes also fight against time. "I live in a hurry. I have to work, go to college, studying for tests, then every five minutes are precious," he says. According to the psychiatrist Raphael Boechat, all this puts people at a fast pace. "They can not turn off, even in moments of leisure," says professional.

He explains that the rush of everyday life also influences the future plans of the population. With this, people are skipping steps. "We see people wanting to have the professional and economic success as adults have. This charge by one side is positive because it encourages them to study and work, but on the other hand, creates an anxiety, a strong recovery. And if this recovery is not satisfied, can lead to depression and suicide, as much in Japan, where the number of deaths of young suicide is very high, "explains Boechat.

Research on the disease of Haste
The survey was conducted by Brazil Stress Management Association (ISMA-BR) in 2006 with a thousand men and women economically active 25 to 65 years. 30% of respondents said they have symptoms of hurry sickness. These:

- 13% recognized the impact of disease on the quality of life but had not done anything, had been looking for alternatives;
- 8% decreased their rhythm after the perception of the problem;
- 56% use prescription drugs for anxiety or depression or self-medicate;
- 48% use alcohol to try to relax;
- 8% tend to suffer more accidents;
