Stress is a normal response to pressure, change, or challenge. When the stressor resolves, your body returns to balance. But when stress lingers without relief, it can lead to burnout—a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion.

Common Signs of Burnout

Fatigue: Constant tiredness that doesn’t improve with rest.


Physical symptoms: Headaches, muscle tension, and digestive issues.


Cynicism & Detachment: A loss of motivation or enthusiasm; feeling emotionally numb or disconnected.


Inefficacy & Self-Doubt: Feeling unproductive, incapable, or like your efforts don’t matter
