burn out symptoms

In case it wasn't already obvious, stick a fork in it, I am so done with this wretched semester and dumb pandemic.

A lot of people miss the signs of being burnt out, but even if you realize that you're at the end of your rope, you might not know exactly why.

Knowing what type(s) of burnout you have will help you >> come up with a plan for dealing with it <<.

Here are the 8 types:

1. Mental burnout: "My mind can't process any more; it’s fried."

2. Emotional burnout: "These heavy or anxious emotions are exhausting!"

3. Compassion burnout: "I can't hold any more loving space for anyone else; I’m tapped."

4. Relational burnout: "I’ve been over-giving to others, my organization or my community/family, and I am over it."

5. Survival burnout: "I’m exhausted from trying to make ends meet and stay afloat."

6. Atlas burnout: "The weight of taking on so much is too much; I can’t hold it all anymore."

7. Passion burnout: "I love what I do, but I’ve given too much, and I've pushed myself too hard."

8. Physical burnout: "My body is fighting against me; I have depleted my life force."
