source?
I’m getting kid of tired of infographics with absolutely zero mention of the source, the reasoning, etc.
This seems mostly legit, but who knows?
I had the exact same concern. Where’s the support for these ideas?
Ended up Googling it for awhile today and got linked to a podcast that had some decent practical tips for reducing burnout (towards the end of the podcast)

Beyond that, though, burnout seems kind of vague and much of the content around it is either worker-focused (you’re burned out because you don’t believe in what you’re doing for a living) or employer-focused (you should be watching out for signs of burnout in your workforce because it hurts productivity).
The best things I found basically recommended having strong boundaries in place to make sure your work and personal life don’t blend.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Woah, 100%. I win!
In that case I am smoke.
So what if we’ve been feeling like this for as long as we can remember? How long can you burn without going out?
How do I cure burnout because I’ve been feeling this way for the past 3/4 months?
For myself:
Regimented change in habits to include more sleep, time outside, and hobbies.Add more time to deadlines to allow for the changes.
so all of life. I was gonna say I don’t do social media but woops im here.
BINGO!
I was a 911 dispatcher for close to 6 years. Towards the end I was deep into all of these things, and more. I couldn’t tell because it had all been normal to me for years by that point. It’s insane how normal this can all seem from the inside. My advice to anyone reading this is that you rarely can be a good judge of your own burnout while experiencing it. Listen to the people you trust when they bring these things up. It’s not judgement, it’s not an attack on you. It’s genuinely in your best interest to not let it get too far. I have been out for almost 4 years now and the last 2 months are the first time in almost a decade I remember what actual happiness is like and how it feels to enjoy doing something.
Sounds like somebody needs to just unplug for a while, man. Go to Burning Man, get enlightened. Take a sabbatical, bro. You’ll be upgrading your network/networth. Let me tell you about microdosing ligma, bro…
Going by what this says, I’ve been burnt out since my junior year of highschool.
I’ma take my complaint in a different direction even though the other comments make really good points. Wtf do I do now? This gives me no indication of what I should do once I recognize I’m burnt out.
According to this I had burnout in kindergarten.
Your parents should not have let you in social media in kindergarten
We only had TV back then. But the moral panic was exactly the same.
Ok how do I fix it?
I’m medicated but still very prone to burnout, and currently burned to a crisp.
Only answer is: Take it easier. Burnout is no joke. If you’re already burnt out, you might need months or more to relax enough to get some passion back.
Hm. I have one vacation day left after being sick. Won’t get more until next week. Work 10 hour days 4 days a week and the too exhausted to relax most of the remaining 3.
What if… Hear me out… What if I were to be, idk, run over by a bus and hospitalized for a month? /s
Take it easier.
How?

You paying my bills?
What’s with the highly irritable? It’s like the person that created the image consciously made that word just partly bold to irritable people. It’s so clearly visible I can’t believe it was a mistake.
You just described my last 2 jobs before I quit and became much happier even tho I was unemployed.
Work is stupid. We should be working 20 hours weeks and fucking around the rest of the time. Everyone would be so much happier.
Or maybe everyone with ADHD (and, this, 80 gagillion hobbies)
