  • A Conversation About Burnout and Mental Health Episode #23

    A Conversation About Burnout and Mental Health Episode #23
    May 10 2023
    May 10, 2023Studio Talk Podcast: Real Conversation About Mental Health A Conversation About Burnout and Mental Health Episode #23In this episode host Xiomara A. Sosa and Co-host Lisa early discuss burnout, how it happens, what to do about it, and how it doesn’t only apply to work environments anymore. They get into their own personal experiences as well as their professional experiences with burnout. Xiomara and Lisa not only get personal about this topic but also encourage listeners to really pay attention to the seriousness of burnout. Burnout can cause significant challenges with your mental health whether it is work related or something that happens because of things going on in your personal life. Both hosts are open about their own experiences with burnout. They talk about what happened, what they wish they had known at the time, how they recovered from it and offer words of wisdom to listeners who might be experiencing burnout now. In addition, they provide resources and references that listeners can refer to if they need to explore this topic further. They also encourage listeners to support loved ones or coworkers who are starting to show the tell tale signs of burnout. They provide examples on how listeners can support others while appropriately maintaining their own boundaries and protecting their own mental health and wellbeing. What is burnout? Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. Burnout can be difficult to describe. However, it’s not a medical condition. According to the APA Dictionary of Psychology, burnout is defined as “physical, emotional or mental exhaustion, accompanied by decreased motivation, lowered performance and negative attitudes towards oneself and others.”It occurs when you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and unable to meet constant demands. As the stress continues, you begin to lose the interest and motivation that led you to take on a certain role in the first place.Burnout reduces productivity and saps your energy, leaving you feeling increasingly helpless, hopeless, cynical, and resentful. Eventually, you may feel like you have nothing more to give.The negative effects of burnout spill over into every area of life—including your home, work, and social life.Burnout can also cause long-term changes to your body that make you vulnerable to illnesses like colds and flu. Because of its many consequences, it’s important to deal with burnout right away.You may not realize you’ve hit burnout until it’s too late when you’ve crossed the line between “really tired” and “too exhausted to function.” Alternatively, you might be the type of personality who likes to stay busy, and might not recognize when you’re doing too much.Burnout also happens when your work-life balance gets out of sync. This has been a common occurrence in the last few years, with the rise in remote work and technology permeating our daily lives.Are you on the road to burnout?You may be on the road to burnout if:Every day is a bad day.Caring about your work or home life seems like a total waste of energy.You’re exhausted all the time.The majority of your day is spent on tasks you find either mind-numbingly dull or overwhelming.You feel like nothing you do makes a difference or is appreciated.Is burnout the same thing as depression?The symptoms of burnout can often resemble the symptoms of more serious medical conditions. These can include mental health-related mood disorders.“Oftentimes, burnout and depression can mirror each other,” explains Dr. Borland. “However, depression is a diagnosable mental health condition, whereas burnout is not.”That’s not the only difference. In contrast to depression, burnout tends to be a response to a specific environment or situation — say, working more hours than usual, or dealing with something specific going on in your life. “Depression doesn’t have to be in response to one specific trigger,” Dr. Borland says. Causes of depression tend to be broader in general, whereas with burnout, we can really pinpoint what is causing these types of symptoms.Depression’s symptoms also tend to be more general, he adds. “Imagine you’re experiencing depression and visit a villa in the South of France,” Dr. Borland says. “The reality is, those depressive symptoms are going to accompany you on that trip.”If you’re dealing with burnout, however, you’ll have a different experience visiting that same villa. “Once you detach from work or whatever it is that’s causing the burnout, you’re going to be able to enjoy that vacation and relax,” he explains. “If you’re feeling depressed, you most likely will not.”Signs and symptoms of burnoutMost of us have days when we feel helpless, overloaded, or unappreciated—when dragging ourselves out of bed requires the determination of Hercules. If you feel like this most of the time, however, you ...
