The World Health Organization defines burnout as feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion, increased mental distance, or feelings of negativism or cynicism and reduced efficiency. This means that if you’re exhausted, feel disconnected from the people and things that matter most to you, have difficulty cultivating a hopeful mindset, and aren’t operating at your best, you could be experiencing burnout. The name mirrors what happens when a flame goes out—you feel like you’ve lost your spark- you’re burnt out.
