That lack of enthusiasm for things you used to enjoy is a sign not to be ignored! I dealt w/ this recently n I knew when I could not pick up my crochet hook (something I usually do to relax)without feeling stressed it was time to make some changes. I also started getting migraines n insomnia n knew this was not good. I spoke with my dr. and he told me to take care of myself. So I changed jobs n am enjoying life again!☺
What you’ve said is the truth! A constant apathy is a huge red flag and it means we have to look for a change. I am so glad that things have worked out well for you at the new job :)
I call in sick even when I'm not sick. Some days I just be like" F work. I don't care about losing money. As long as I have a peace of mind. That's what it's all about
Sadly burnout is a slow situation and it sneaks up on you. All the symptoms I had, bad sleep and stomach issues mainly. Now moving onto a new position. Feels so good to have hope again.
Yep. Spot on. I found myself constantly thinking of work. I lost my appetite. I started having insomnia. The insomnia caught up with me and I almost crashed my car on the way home from work. Gave my notice. Now I have no income but at least I have my life.
You are so welcome. And I am sorry to hear you are going through this, you can't believe how important it is to identify it though, before it goes much further and turns into a depression. Hope things start improving step by step. Best of luck to you and keep me posted!
I have two other coworkers and despite this, I have working by myself 5 days a week since the pandemic while they work from home. This has caused burnout for me and I am now seeking other opportunities before it gets too overwhelming.
I feel like that alot , i have trouble sleeping because im anxious about my workload the next day , i have a really shitty ”route” compared to my collegues, weve had 3 guys on my route that quit these past 3 years. And i thought i would be able to manage it since my work moral is pretty high but im feeling almost non human at this point i dont care about anyone or anything and im not like this and Ive never been like this. Ive lost appetite ,sleep i have no energy to do anything at all im just sitting eating sleeping. I have bumps on my neck and Pain in my left shoulder all the way down to my ankle. I thought it all came from the Pain first so i went to a chiro , he told me i should go urgently to the hospital and get checked. Just writing this is exhausting its insane and im 29 years Old
Yep, all those things happened to me as a community RN. One day I just couldn’t function anymore. There’s just only so much abuse you take especially from you supervisors let alone the patients and families.
I have to be really careful with burnout because I become negative and very temperamental. I don’t want to be saying the wrong things the wrong way to anyone. It’s happened before and fortunately they knew and understood what the deal was and was understanding when I apologized.
Hi Sparky Thims! So glad to see you around :) I am well, I've been a little busy on Sundays but hope to re-start the Sunday streams again! How have you been?
I think i have been burned out once, not sure if it was a burnout or a depressed.It all felt like a blur for about a year; I was low and demotivated, but I moved to another city and life started picking up
Great video and tips, we have found being in nature and getting to the source of why we keep overworking really helped. Thanks for discussing this top and sharing your tips 🙂🙂
Nursing is a profession where people burn out. Even in the 80’s on a geriatric floor, 11 patients on day shift. Nobody to do baths. There’s multiple medications to give, wound care, Foley catheters were rear. Patients were incontinent of bladder and bowel. Nobody to fill water pitchers, feed patients, pass trays, run to the lab. I was in and out of the hospital. I couldn’t even do home healthcare, do charts or coding without burning out and ending up in the hospital. I was always stressed out due to schizoaffective disorder. My mental health was always bad. Unfortunately I can’t work anymore. I can’t do anything, because it’s way too fast paced. Believe me, I’ve been threatened about being fired a lot. There’s always someone who can’t do the work. They are better off without me.
I'm a Nurse too, and I used to dislike everything that you've spoken of here, and still do, but I didn't take the Covid shots and ending up working in a Call centre. What's worse than all of that you have mentioned?? It's working in a Call centre and spoken down to by "managers" who make it their business to micromanager and bully because they can! At least as a Nurse I was shown respect!
I have been experiencing all these signs within the last 6 years. At this point, I have lost hope in what I do as a career. I just do it to pay my bills until I complete new degree to try a different career path. I have experienced 6 different jobs (due to company closures and lawsuits). I have filed lawsuits against 2 former employers for failure to pay me fairly. The other four jobs either closed or it did not work out due to toxic environment. I have physically relocated twice into new towns hoping for a better opportunity too. As a result, I have become apathetic and could care less. I will go a month without completing paperwork. I just want my paycheck until I can enter a new career. At least, I recognize this is not sustainable until retirement age. I hope it is over within 2 years, then I can do something worthwhile. I just don't know what else to do to cope with it all. Work for me is a living hell. Finally, I am in a decent position, but I am so burnout all I can think about is a new career.
Hello 👋 I'm sorry for what you're going through. Don't give up! There's always hope and if you need to talk to a therapist don't care about the stigma some people put to this. Talking with a therapist doesn't make you crazy. When you need a doctor because of a pain in the back or a broken leg, why shouldn't we ask for help as well for our mind and spirit? I hope this helps. Just know a stranger is wishing you well 🤗🤗
I'm in healthcare and I try to return to healthcare jobs all the time but I can't seem to return to it with the joy I had when I was 20 years old. I've worked this line of work for 11 years. I enjoy the hotel industry much more. Maybe it's time to stop forcing myself to return to healthcare when I hate it?
I was trying to figure out what was wrong with me. It's not just depression and irritability, but something deeper. I am starting to think that it may be burnout from so many short-term contract jobs, Covid, lifestyle change (working from home) and lack of social interaction. The joy of life has just fizzled.
Sigh.. I keep on thinking about work during weekends & every time waking up, always worrying. While at work, I felt like not doing any work compare to my first day where I was so excited & happy... Is this normal?
It's not normal, you clearly need a change. How long have you been working for the company? Is this recent or you've been feeling like this for a while?
@@myemmotion Hi Marat, I have been working for almost 3 years at this company, since Dec 2018 as a programmer, I like my job & my IT manager taught me lots of stuff. Around June 2020, I have been transferred to a completely different department, not even related to programming (no contract paper of me transferring department from HR at all), and my fav IT manager has resigned. Now I'm stuck doing telemarketing & monitoring students during exams. And I dislike my new manager because of his attitude (toxic boss-type) :(
@@teikfai4260 Your demotivation is completely understandable. Your current job clearly lacks challenge or enthusiasm which you used to have. Have you been checking any programming positions? Feeling stuck at this job can be quite deceiving, you have so much to offer, many companies would want to hire you.
I need to start my own business… something I’m passionate about. I cannot stand watching my boss do whatever she wants and be on my back about everything. She complains and is very unethical and unprofessional. I wrote a bad review about the company and they tried to retaliate and tell me i need to be there at 8:00 am. I have to get my baby ready in the morning for daycare and get up and just repeat. I have tried to take off work but they make me feel bad about it. I hope I get another job asap while I build my own business.
Burnout also happens when you are not incentivised to do your job with a sense of accomplishment. Lack of wage rises and poor company culture are mostly to blame. Its better to quit than to get sick. Trust me.
Have you ever dealt with emotional burnout? How did it feel and how did you manage to recover from being burnt out?
and thanks for the video btw
”Burnout happens when you avoid being human for too long.” Well said!
We only realize it with some time and perspective but that's the "definition" of how we might get to that point.
Absolutely

I use to be a person that would almost never call in sick. Now, I don’t hesitate to use my sick time.
I call in sick even when I'm not sick. Some days I just be like" F work. I don't care about losing money. As long as I have a peace of mind. That's what it's all about
Sadly burnout is a slow situation and it sneaks up on you. All the symptoms I had, bad sleep and stomach issues mainly. Now moving onto a new position. Feels so good to have hope again.
Especially if you're dealing with a micromanager😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
It definitely contributes to it and a lot.
Staying at work and just changing your work patterns is a whimsical fantasy. Supervisors / admin won’t get off your back or lower their expectations.
You are correct. You have to quit.
Its easy to fall into being burned out, tired and exhausted if the job isn't any good and if you have a bad manager.
I hear you!
this is such a dynamic video
when I was fired from my job I felt emotionally burnout
This isn't uncommon, I hope you dealt with it, let me know if you have any questions or need any information!
Yep. Spot on. I found myself constantly thinking of work. I lost my appetite. I started having insomnia. The insomnia caught up with me and I almost crashed my car on the way home from work. Gave my notice. Now I have no income but at least I have my life.
You should make a video on how to stay away from negative people. Great video, thanks for the tips!
You are so welcome!
@@myemmotion I second him to that.
So true, I have been feeling like this for years. Horrible situation. Not even interesting in anything.
Burnout is worse when you never liked your job/career in the first place. 😢
Exercising and meditation is an awesome advice
It helps so much!
Its is amazing to me, how almost all the symptoms you list in this video match what I am feeling. Thank you for posting.
You are so welcome. And I am sorry to hear you are going through this, you can't believe how important it is to identify it though, before it goes much further and turns into a depression.

I recognize all those signs
I have a friend who was burned out and who then fell into a long depression. It took him 3 years to get better
I am sorry to hear that.
Great work
you're helping many people
Thank you very much!
great video yet. going through it now, it's taking time to restore myself, keeping reminding myself the purpose of my job. but it's taking time

Didn't have off days for 3 weeks now and searching for this is not a surprise. Thank you Marat

It must have been hard and I am really glad you managed to get out of this situation!
Terrible manager leads to burnout.
That's right. They keep pushing for more and more while your pay stays the same.

Am going on week vacation from my first job
Is it even possible to not get burned out? Every job I work, at some point, I get burnt out.

talk about hitting the nail on the head you just kill it with this one everything u said am going throw now tell my boss just look at me like am crazy
This was interesting, thank you
You are welcome!
When you try to be something you're not at work you get burnt out
Excellent😍😍
Thanks so much!
I'm out on an injury when I was working and burnt out I kept getting hurt because I was tired

When you have been burnt out for 20 years. Now how do you deal with that.
I was burnt out. Had all the described symptoms. Then i started taking 1000mg of vitamin C and B complex…. Took the burnt out away overnight!!!
mis your live sessions
I will surely be back soon!
Boss made me do ridiculous hours. Hated me. Exploitation. You are only human. Get out 👍
Yes its hard to work for a boss who is an epic fail....both in the hard and soft school area
What about burnt on?
💙
I drag myself to home.
I wonder what country you are from and what your heritage is?
