Unmasking Work Addiction: Insights from ICAMP 2026’s Featured Virtual Presentation

At the upcoming International Conference on Addiction Medicine, Mental Health and Psychiatry (ICAMP 2026), held from March 23–25, 2026 in Singapore and online, Eva Ein Eli from France will deliver a compelling virtual presentation that shines a light on an often misunderstood behavioral disorder—work addiction.

Her talk, Work addiction: Understanding, practical strategies, and empowering testimonies,” dives deep into the psychological foundations, real-life experiences, and practical solutions surrounding this hidden challenge prevalent in modern professional environments.


Presentation Highlights

·         A deeper definition of work addiction, separating it from burnout and emphasizing its roots in internal compulsion rather than external workload.

·         The invisible harm caused by workaholism—spanning stress-related illnesses, cardiovascular risks, sleep disorders, and emotional imbalance.

·         Societal and cultural reinforcement, where overworking is celebrated and chronic productivity is normalized.

·         Impact of perfectionism and isolation, especially as digital work blurs boundaries between personal life and professional demands.

·         Three-tier prevention strategy:

o    Primary: Challenging unhealthy work expectations and promoting awareness.

o    Secondary: Early detection supported by mindfulness and reflective practices.

o    Tertiary: CBT, long-term therapy, and mental health support to aid recovery.

·         Powerful personal testimonies, offering an authentic look into the lived experience of work addiction and pathways toward healing.

·         Practical tools for employers, therapists, and policymakers to recognize, manage, and prevent work-related addictions in the workforce.
