A workaholic is someone who compulsively works long hours, often to the point of exhaustion. They may neglect their personal life and health in favor of their work, and they may find it difficult to relax or take time off.

Workaholics often feel a strong need to be productive and may feel guilty or anxious when they’re not working. Workaholism is considered a problem when it starts to negatively impact one’s health, relationships, and quality of life.
