So, if you are more tired than usual, know that retirement is this time of rest that your body needs. What most people imagine is that retirement really is a gift, but scientific studies show that it can be more of a curse than anything else.

Get to know the retirement curse and deconstruct expectations created for this moment

Expectation versus reality

The moments of rest in retirement can be interrupted by health problems that usually appear with great effect in old age: cancer, stroke, heart disease and others. Dealing with reality is not always so easy.

retirement curse

Economist Dhaval Dave and the health department at Bentley University in Massachusetts studied the effect of the retirement curse. Thus, it turned out that the indication of the data showing the negative effect on health is completely real.

Decline in physical and mental health

The team found that, after 5 years since starting retirement, the American has a 6% to 9% drop in health mental, and about 5% to 6% in the sick condition, also considering a difficulty of 5% to 16% in activities daily. That is, these are drastic changes for a person.

It's not a good time for the economy

Government health programs feel an impact from these increases in medical needs for people who need chronic treatments.

The problem, of course, is not retirement.

The curse and difficulties are found in the transition from work to retirement, for that is the very moment when all the work done during a lifetime is stopped.

Human beings are accustomed to the habit

The habit of work came during a lifetime, five days a week and every month of the year. Therefore, in retirement, it is recommended to create new habits to take the place of work, otherwise the retiree may suffer from the change.
