Burnout therapy

Being overstrained or experiencing burnout is intense and has a huge impact on your body and mind. When someone is overstrained, they are in the preliminary stage of a burnout situation. Relying on perseverance and/or adrenaline, they can still hold out for a while. However, if no solution is found and the stress persists for longer (more than 6 months), the body and mind can become totally exhausted and “burned out”; hence the name. Burnout signals can vary from person to person. We have listed a number of them for you.
