Book •
Ferenczi's "Sunday Neuroses" explores the psychological distress experienced by some individuals on Sundays, extending the concept to encompass holidays and vacations.
He links this distress to the abrupt shift from the work week's structured routine to the unstructured relaxation of rest days.
The enforced relaxation reveals underlying anxieties and conflicts, highlighting the individual's struggle to reconcile work and leisure.
The essay emphasizes the importance of understanding the psychological mechanisms involved in maintaining daily routines and the challenges of adapting to periods of rest.
Ferenczi's work provides a framework for understanding the psychological impact of societal expectations and the complexities of work-life balance.
