"The shock of unemployment becomes a pathology in its own right"

- Robert Farrar Capon

About this Quote

Robert Farrar Capon's quote "The shock of joblessness ends up being a pathology in its own right" suggests that unemployment can have a negative as well as long lasting influence on a person's mental wellness. The shock and stress connected with shedding a task can result in a variety of emotional, cognitive, and behavioral signs and symptoms, including anxiety, stress and anxiety, insecurity, and also a sense of helplessness.

In this declaration, Capon highlights the dangerous nature of unemployment's effects, which extend past financial ramifications to trigger significant mental damage. The expression "pathology in its own right" indicates that the psychological health and wellness effects of unemployment are not just a result of financial strain but a distinct health problem in their own terms.

Furthermore, Capon recommends that the emotional impacts of joblessness can continue also after the person has actually gained back employment. Therefore, his words indicate that the influence of shedding a job surpasses the functional and monetary facets, creating long-term mental health and wellness problems that call for attention and also support.
