Why does it seem like you spend most of your time in bed, lying down and not doing much lately?

關係子句

Are you someone who easily gets tired and doesn't feel like doing anything?

Do you label this kind of behavior as mere laziness and nothing more?

There's actually a lot of overlap between laziness and burnout that can make it difficult to differentiate between the two.

Burnout is a negative state of emotional, physical and mental exhaustion caused by excessive stress and inability to cope with it.

And as of 2010, a survey reported that approximately 75% of adults in the United States alone have experienced symptoms of burnout, with over 40% of cases being more severe.

Now, more than ever, it's become imperative to educate and better understand the nature of burnout.

So with that said, here are six telltale signs that what you're experiencing right now isn't actually laziness, but

Number one, you feel disconnected from everything.

Are you going through the motions of every day as if on autopilot?

Is there a persistent feeling of being detached from your own self?

If you're suffering from burnout, one of the things you might be experiencing but don't quite realize or understand is depersonalization.

People experiencing depersonalization, most commonly those struggling with trauma, report feeling a strange sort of emotional numbness or emptiness, as if they were watching life from outside of themselves.

They don't feel like themselves anymore, they don't feel engaged by anything, and

they constantly struggle with the overwhelming sense of helplessness and inability to take back control of their lives.

Laziness is a character trait, and character traits tend to remain stable over time.

A lazy person doesn't ever feel like exerting effort or applying themselves to things.

But if you used to be self motivated and high achieving, often excelling in certain areas, and

have only recently become exhausted, apathetic, and

unmotivated, then it's more likely that you're suffering from burnout and not laziness like most people would think.

A clear difference between someone who's burnt out and someone who's lazy is that the former used to have things they were passionate about, but

may now be struggling to find interest or enjoyment in anymore, whether it's a talent, a sport, or just your academic or professional performance.

In general, burnout can make it hard for you to do the things you once loved or felt passionate about.

You might even come to hate or resent it because of how much you overworked yourself and pushed yourself to the brink because of it.

Do you suddenly find yourself snappy and easily irritated?

Do you often feel emotionally out of control nowadays and don't know why?

Moodiness and irritability are common but often overlooked signs of burnout.

So if you start to have trouble controlling your emotions, especially when it never used to be a problem for you, this might be the reason why.

Lazy people, on the other hand, are a stark contrast to this because they're often very relaxed, laid back, placid and unaffected by things you've neglected.

Your self Care One of the most distressing warning signs that someone may be emotionally and physically burnt out is if you start neglecting your self care and socially withdraw from others.

There are concerning changes in your eating and or sleeping patterns.

You stop making an effort to groom yourself or look good, and

you tend to spend most of your time by yourself doing nothing because you're so easily exhausted by even the simplest of tasks.

The difference between being burnt out and laziness are starkly in the fact that you weren't always this way.

And number six, these changes happened gradually.

Finally, but perhaps most importantly, something you should know about burnout is that it develops in stages.

So all the points mentioned before losing interest and motivation, especially in things we used to love, feeling detached from yourself and disconnected from everything around you.

Socially withdrawing and neglecting your self care won't just happen overnight.

Studies show that there are actually five major stages of burnout, each with increasing degrees of the honeymoon phase, the onset of stress, chronic stress, burnout, and

Many people begin to experience symptoms as early as the second phase, when there is still a moderate amount of stress, but

optimism, interest, motivation and performance may already start declining.

And by the time you reach the fifth and final stage, burnout has already become so embedded in your life that the persistent mental and physical fatigue become more intense and harder to treat, making you more vulnerable to developing depression and anxiety.

Spotting the signs of burnout early makes it all the more easier for you to get help and recover from it.

That's why it's so important to raise awareness about burnout instead of simply dismissing it as laziness like most people tend to do.

So if you or anyone you know may be suffering from mental or emotional burnout, please don't hesitate to reach out to a mental health care professional today and talk to them about it.
