It might feel like:
- You’re constantly busy but never feel caught up.
- You dread opening your emails.
- You’re losing motivation for work you once enjoyed.
- You feel emotionally numb or disconnected.
- Small tasks suddenly feel overwhelming.
- You can’t switch your mind off after work.
- You’re becoming more irritable with colleagues or family.
- You feel guilty whenever you’re not working.

Stress | Burnout |
|---|---|
Busy but coping | Emotionally exhausted |
Temporary | Ongoing |
Rest helps | Rest doesn’t fully restore you |
Still motivated | Motivation has disappeared |
Hopeful | Detached or cynical |
Burnout is rarely caused by one factor. It often develops when prolonged workplace demands, high responsibility, perfectionism, limited recovery time and ongoing stress occur together. Therapy can help you understand what is contributing to your burnout and develop sustainable strategies for recovery.

Understanding work stress and burnout
What is work-related stress?
What is burnout?
Burnout is a state of emotional, physical and mental exhaustion often associated with prolonged workplace stress. It may involve feeling depleted, disconnected from work and finding it difficult to recover through rest alone.
Common signs of burnout
People experiencing burnout may notice ongoing fatigue, difficulty concentrating, irritability, reduced motivation, poor sleep or feeling emotionally detached from work and everyday life.
When to seek support
Support may be helpful if work stress is affecting your wellbeing, relationships, confidence or ability to enjoy life outside of work. Early support can help prevent stress from becoming more overwhelming.
