By the end of my shift, my voice is tired before my body is. I still smile, but it feels heavier than it used to. How do you know when you’re just tired versus truly burned out?

Sometimes I just need a long weekend to reset. But I don't really have the luxury of being burned out in this economy. I need to work hard because somebody else will do it if I don't.

Burn out is inevitable.

It’s inevitable when you’re working for a place that doesn’t offer a balanced schedule and hours, when you’re overworked and under appreciated, when you’re understaffed and they refuse to hire because they’re trying to save on labor….

Think I’ve figured it out. Burn out is definitely physical exhaustion coupled with frustrations associated with your workplace. These things can make you feel much more tired than you already are

For me, tired goes away after real rest. Burnout sticks around even after time off and starts to feel heavier emotionally than physically. When the weight follows you into every shift, it is usually more than just being tired.

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(
