Long commute and well-being

The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index:

Well-Being & Commuting: Well-Being Index Analytics
The study reaffirms the well-known relationship between long commuting duration and poor psychological health. It reports that the longer people have to commute (be it in a car, train or bus) to get to work, the more miserable they feel.

Specifically, the longer you commute:

• The more you worry.
• You are less likely you are to smile or laugh each day.
• High blood pressure and obesity are more likely.
• You will exercise less.
• It's less likely you will see your workplace as having a trusting place.
• You will hate the job that you’re spending all that time to get to and from.
