Low Feeling
Sometimes, burnout shows up in the form of irritable nature. You constantly snap or nag, and make negative remarks about others.It may lead to severe depression making you lethargic and feeling drowsy all the time. You can become an introvert and be in a mood to not socialize with others. But then there are a few others who look for happiness outside their realm - extramarital affairs, drugs, alcohol, excessive partying or shopping - anything that gives them a high for the time being. This sometimes leads to personal relationships falling apart.

How do you know if you are burned - out?
When you are going through a burnout, your behavior will change. You may isolate yourself from others, start drinking alcohol and in some extreme cases start using drugs to cope with the responsibilities that you might withdraw yourself from. You might even start taking your frustrations out on others. There are many questions that you can ask yourself to see if you are going through a burnout, like:
- Do you feel like you have no energy to do any work?
- Do you feel like your work is monotonous and less challenging?
- Do you feel like no one understands you and you have no one to talk to?
- Do you tend to attract a lot of negative emotions while working?
- Do you feel like you are less sympathetic towards people’s feelings?
- Do you feel like you have a lot of weight on your shoulders and are getting no support from family or friends?
- Are you having a hard personal life?
- Do you feel that you do not have the time to do all the things that you want to?
If your answers are yes to any of the questions above, then it means that you are reaching a burnout and should start seeking help.
