Is someone or something at your workplace bringing you down? Today, make an effort to fix the problem, whether that means patching up a strained relationship or brightening up a gloomy office. It's true that work isn't everything, but you do spend an awful lot of time there -- and a 2011 study found that people with poor on-the-job support systems were 2.4 times more likely to die during a 20-year period. To safeguard your health, researchers say, make an effort to form emotional connections with your coworkers, not just professional ones.

  • this is so timely, as I just resigned and walked out from my job today. I dont like being micromanage and processing papers all day without people interaction. I had to listen to my body and it seems lately when I get so stressed out I feel a sharp pain on my right breast. Yes, we need to work to pay our bills, but getting sick because of a job is not even worth it.
