Prolonged exposure to stress and anxiety can lead to a sense of burnout. “Burnout can come from several things, but chronic stress is usually the main underlying factor. It's important to recognize early signs of burnout to help increase your chances of avoiding full-blown burnout.
If you're looking for ways to move away from the burnout zone, here are some things you can do to start to feel like yourself again. Even tiny changes can make a significant difference in how you feel,” wrote Psychologist Carolyn Rubenstein. Here are a few ways to recover.
Sometimes the absence of healthy boundaries can lead us to be in situations that can cause burnout. We should set and enforce boundaries.
We need to regularly check in with ourselves to understand our emotional and mental health. Journaling can help us do that.
Work on self-awareness to understand the stressors and triggers. This will help us to know why we are getting burnt out.
We should focus on our own wellbeing and make changes in our environment to promote self-love and self-care.
Instead of isolating ourselves from others, we should seek safe people we can connect with and be vulnerable with.
