What Is Burnout?
Signs, Symptoms & How Therapy Can Help
Burnout is more than just being tired — it's a profound state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion. Common burnout symptoms include:
- Chronic fatigue
- Irritability and anger
- Anxiousness
- Emotional withdrawal
- Loss of motivation
- Physical issues like headaches or digestive problems
These symptoms are especially common in caregivers, neurodivergent folks, and parents.
Therapy sessions can help you:
- Recognize the signs of burnout
- Understand what burnout feels like
- Learn how to deal with burnout and develop strategies for sustainable recovery
- Build emotional resilience and restore your sense of well-being
Emotional Exhaustion, Chronic Fatigue, and Feeling Empty: Are These Signs of Burnout?
If you feel like you're constantly running on empty, it could be more than stress — it may be emotional burnout.
You may notice:
- Persistent fatigue, even after rest
- Difficulty focusing or caring
- A short fuse and increased irritability
- Lack of joy or connection in everyday life
Burnout therapy helps you reclaim your energy and reconnect with the things that once brought you meaning and joy.
