Money, Stress, and Your Health: "The health costs of debt stress
According to the survey findings, one in five respondents with moderately high or high levels of debt stress experienced incidents of mental and physical health deterioration. The survey also found that highly debt-stressed people were:

More than 13 times as likely than low- to no-stress people to lose sleep at night
More than seven times as likely to have severe anxiety
Almost seven times as likely to take stress out on others
Nearly six times as likely to experience severe depression
Four times as likely to have ulcers or other digestive problems
Twice as likely to have heart problems and migraines"
