Stress and Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. It occurs when you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and unable to meet the constant demands of everyday life. As the stress continues, you can begin to lose interest and motivation.  It is important to understand that stressful situations or events are not limited to negative experiences. Stress can come from positive events and changes also.

Stress and Burnout can reduce your productivity and sap your energy, leaving you feeling increasingly helpless, hopeless, cynical, and resentful. Eventually, you may feel like you have nothing more to give. The negative effects of Stress and Burnout can spill over into every area of your life, including home, work, and social life. These effects can also cause changes to your body that make you vulnerable to illness, such as colds and flu, and glandular fever. It’s important to identify Stress and Burnout, and deal with it as soon as possible.
