    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)

      Link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-be-a-better-human/id1544098624?i=1000601831170

      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)_/¯

    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.

    So what if we’ve been feeling like this for as long as we can remember? How long can you burn without going out?

      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)
