Understanding Burnout – Burnout is not just about stress; it's a state of chronic mental exhaustion resulting from ongoing stress without effective stress release – an essential distinction for anyone in high-pressure jobs.


Signs and Prevention – Spotting symptoms like fatigue, loss of motivation, and mood changes early can prevent deeper issues. Implementing better sleep habits, regular exercise, and social interactions are vital steps toward prevention.
