Central London based private assessment and treatment for Burnout
Are you sufferingfrom Burnout?
Are you feeling constantly stressed? Does that lead you to then feeling completely exhausted, disillusioned with your life and what you are doing but at the same time helpless to do anything about it? When you experience burnout, problems can seem insuperable, things can start to feel hope-less and you can easily feel overwhelmed.
The consequences of burnout can threaten your job, your relationships and even your health. However if you are aware of what burnout is, and can recognise the early warning signs, there are things you can do to help prevent it. If you believe that you have already reached the point of no return, there are also steps that can be taken to restore your sense of balance once again.
What is Burnout?
The term “burnout” was first used by Herbert Freudenberger in 1974. He defined the it in his book, Burnout: The High Cost of High Achievement, as, “the extinction of motivation or incentive, especial-ly where one’s devotion to a cause or relationship fails to produce the desired results.”
Burnout is a result of prolonged and excessive stress that can result in mental, physical and emo-tional exhaustion. When in a state of burnout your energy levels will be drastically reduced, you can feel increasingly helpless, hopeless, cynical and resentful. You may start feeling totally empty and numb.
The effects of burnout can reverberate throughout all areas of life, it’s not only your work life that will be affected, but also your home and social life. The many consequences of burnout mean that it’s important to deal with it as soon as you see any of the signs or symptoms.
