Burnout Check

Burnout often shows up as a pattern around energy, pressure, boundaries, and recovery. This guide helps you notice those patterns without turning them into a diagnosis.

Overview

The Burnout Check is a lightweight self-awareness tool for reflecting on energy, motivation, pressure, boundaries, and recovery. It is not medical advice or a mental health screening.

What It Looks At

The check asks about fatigue, emotional bandwidth, workload pressure, recovery time, cynicism, focus, and whether rest is actually restoring you.

How to Use This Guide

Use your result as a prompt for small adjustments: lowering unnecessary load, protecting recovery, asking for help, or noticing whether pressure has become too constant.

FAQ
