I don't think you really can because those two feelings are so similar. Based on how new you are, my guess is that it's MOST LIKELY just the stress of trying to learn everything and find your footing. That's a big adjustment and takes everyone time. If another 6 months go by and you still feel the same way, I suppose it could be burnout, but I don't think that's going to happen.

Honestly I got my 2-3 year floor experience and then transitioned to what I initially wanted but you need experience ( UR and case management)
Honestly, I think most of us don’t realize we’re burned out until we’re already deep in it. Try giving yourself permission to rest, say no to extra shifts, and talk openly with coworkers. The ones who’ve been there will spot the difference quickly.
