Is this burnout or something else?

Exhaustion, boredom, unfair workload, conflict and having little say can all feel similar from the inside. This is a way of separating them out.

This does not diagnose burnout or any condition, and it is not a health assessment. If how you feel is affecting your health, that is worth raising with your GP.

How much does each of these match your experience at the moment?

I feel physically exhausted

Thinking feels harder than it used to

I feel emotionally worn out

I have lost interest in things across life, not only work

Rest does not restore me the way it used to

My frustration is specifically linked to work, and eases away from it

I am bored or under-stimulated

My workload feels unfair compared with others

What I contribute is not recognised

Conflict with someone at work is affecting me

I have little say over how I do my work

I am masking a lot to get through the day

There is a mismatch between what I can do and what the role asks of me

What your answers point towards

Answer a few of the items above and this will fill in.

If exhaustion is a large part of it, there is practical support in Overloaded? and Regulate & Reset.
