If your weekends are overshadowed by dread about the week ahead, you're not imagining it-and you're not failing at rest. For many people, Sunday nights bring racing thoughts, tension in the body, and a sense that work has already begun. Even during time off, the mind keeps looping, unable to relax or fully disconnect. This book is for anyone who feels anxious before Monday arrives and wonders why rest never really feels restful. When Sunday Nights Ruin Your Weekend explores anticipatory anxiety-the quiet, consuming stress that shows up before the workweek starts. It explains why the fear of what's coming can feel worse than the work itself, why your body stays on alert even when nothing is happening, and how chronic pressure trains your mind to stay braced at all times. This is not a book about productivity, mindset shifts, or "making the most of your weekends." There are no diagnoses, no forced positivity, and no pressure to fix yourself. Instead, it offers clear, emotionally precise understanding for why your anxiety shows up when it does-and why it makes sense that it's been so hard to rest. Written in a steady, compassionate voice, this book helps you: - Understand why Sunday-night dread is so powerful - Make sense of mental looping and constant anticipation - Recognize how pressure carries into time off - Feel less alone in an experience many people hide Part of a series on modern work anxiety, this book is for people who are still functioning, still showing up, and still exhausted by the weight of what's coming next. If you've ever reached the end of the weekend feeling more tense than restored, this book offers something simple and rare: clear language for what you're experiencing-and the relief that comes from realizing you're not alone.
