Burnout is an intense feeling of emotional, mental and physical exhaustion. It is often thought of as a “workplace” challenge and it can significantly affect our mental health and our ability to perform everyday tasks. Left unaddressed, burnout may also lead to further challenges, such as depression anxiety, or a mental health breakdown.
Burnout is often caused by excessive and prolonged stress, most often in the workplace, but it can be a combination of both work and home life.
What Are the Symptoms of Burnout?
✅Decreased concentration and Productivity
✅Slowed Memory and Cognitive Function
✅Emotional Exhaustion
✅Impact on Relationships
It’s important to note that burnout affects everyone differently. While some people may have greater resilience and quicker recovery, others might struggle.
Recognising and addressing burnout early on is critical to prevent more severe mental health issues from arising.
How To Overcome Burnout
Prioritising self-care in your daily routine can help to combat burnout effectively.
✅Take Breaks
✅Stay Active
✅Prioritise Sleep
✅Spend time in nature
✅Stay connected with others
✅Seek Support
Burnout is our body’s way of telling us that something needs to change, and that what we are going through right now is not sustainable.
Prolonged exposure to overwhelming stress and anxiety can lead to a breaking point and burnout, which can result in a mental breakdown.
Burnout relentlessly chips away at one’s physical and emotional reserves, pushing them to the edge and causing even the strongest of foundations to crack.
In such moments, you may find yourself in a state of crisis, desperately needing the support and strategies that therapy and counselling can provide to rebuild and recover.
