Are You a Workaholic?

Are you a workaholic? A CBS News suggests that there are more workaholics than ever in America.
Is your life all work and no play? You may be a workaholic, or in danger of becoming one.

And you're not only not alone, it appears you're being joined by a growing number of others.

On The Early Show Friday, Thalia Assuras reported that more than a-third of Americans will opt to not take all the vacation days they're entitled to this year, and Americans are averaging more than three hours a week more today than their parents did. That's the equivalent of three-and-a-half more workweeks a year.
Does not taking vacations mean you are a workaholic or does it just mean you are trying to get ahead? If you feel you are slipping into the workaholic category there is help out there. The CBS News article mentions a group called Workaholics Anonymous that has 35 meeting sites nationwide. They also provide an interview with Bryan Robinson Ph.D., author of Chained to the Desk: A Guidebook for Workaholics.
