Laziness and burnout aren't always easy to distinguish; burnout is described as "a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion due to chronic stress and an inability to cope with it."

Burnout can be masked by a few signs. Here are a few that tell you it's not laziness, but burnout.

Have you ever talked to a sociopath? According to the Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (or DSM-5), sociopathy is a category of antisocial personality disorder. A sociopath is someone with interior, social, and pathological impairments to their personality. Sociopaths will say anything to get their way, even if that means bending the truth and manipulation. Do you suspect you may be dealing with a sociopath right now? In this video, we present to you some of the things a sociopath would say to help you understand what really goes through their minds.

As a disclaimer, we want to note that these phrases alone don’t define a sociopath. Language is just a small piece of a larger puzzle. In other words, you may hear a friend or partner use phrases from this list, but that doesn’t necessarily make him or her a sociopath.

Your intelligence is much more than what grade you got on your math test. In fact, Psychologist Howard Gardner divided intelligence into 9 intelligence types. These are: spatial intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, naturalistic intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, musical intelligence, intra-personal intelligence, linguistic intelligence, existential intelligence, and bodily-kinesthetic intelligence. Below is a link to a multiple intelligence quiz that we put together. Let us know what your intelligence type is.

Drama queens, crybabies, whiners, wet blankets – Highly Sensitive People (HSP) have been labelled all of these things and more, when the truth is, there’s a lot of things most people fail to understand about the concept. HSP was originated by Dr. Elaine N. Aron (1996), and it refers to an inherent, biological predisposition some people have to process and perceive information on a much deeper level. If you’re an HSP, then you think and feel things with greater intensity, in a way that many others can’t understand. Sometimes, HSP are mistaken as empaths. Do you know someone who might be an HSP? Do you agree with these signs?

This is a hard pill to swallow, but our society is still not particularly welcoming towards those who walk around with scars. We are encouraged to not be as open about our wounds and fears. It is this idea that makes us a little less welcoming towards those with mental health issues. This is why we create this video to raise awareness on depression and mental health! To let you know that it's okay and you're not alone!

Depression is a serious mental illness. Despite its severity, many people choose to handle it on their own. Some people bottle up their emotions for years and try to remedy themselves because they fear being stigmatized or rejected. Although those with depression sometimes exhibit certain behavior patterns, depression looks and feels different for everyone. If you notice some of these symptoms in someone you love, be compassionate, offer to listen without judgment, and if they ask, help them seek professional help.

We also made a video on the signs you're depressed, not lazy: https://youtu.be/q8HRGiUeZwc
