Stress at work: Pink slips giving employees the blues

NEW DELHI: A senior executive at a leading IT services company recently approached Sairee Chahal, founder of women career services portal SHEROES, to explore job options. The executive was worried there could be bad news for her at work. A patient of Samir Parikh at the department of mental health and behavioural sciences at Fortis Healthcare in New Delhi lost his job about two months ago. Along with the job, the patient lost complete self-confidence to face interviews. He used to get panic attacks and palpitations hours before an interview.
