News Topical, Digital Desk : When Arijit Singh recently announced his retirement, fans were heartbroken. The world was also surprised when stars like Neha Kakkar and Zakir Khan took a break from work.
In such a situation, the question arises that when these stars who rule over millions of hearts can press the 'pause button' in their glamorous world, then why don't we stop in our daily race?
Does this happen to you, feeling achy even after eight hours of sleep? Does even small tasks like getting out of bed feel like climbing a mountain? If so, be careful. This isn't just fatigue; it's the sign of burnout. If you often dismiss it as work pressure, beware, because it's slowly destroying your health like termites. Let's learn some important things about it:
What is burnout after all?
Simply put, burnout occurs when you feel completely drained physically, mentally, and emotionally. When this happens, a person loses interest in anything and continues to work. The problem is that it's often difficult to detect until you're completely exhausted. Especially those who prefer to stay busy often don't realize they're working beyond their capacity.
Key symptoms of burnout
- If you feel sleepy all the time and even simple tasks are taking hours to complete.
- If you start feeling that there is no point in doing anything or you start feeling nervous at the very mention of going to work.
- Feeling irritated over small things, getting angry over small things and keeping distance from friends and family.
- Eating too much or not eating at all. Similarly, sleeplessness or excessive sleepiness may occur.
- Headaches (especially heaviness in the forehead), upset stomach, or back pain due to persistent stress.
Why does burnout happen?
- working long hours without rest
- Lack of balance between work and personal life
- Having excessive expectations of yourself
- inability to say 'no'
- Available by phone/email at all times
How to deal with burnout
To overcome burnout, it is important to keep some things in mind-
- Avoid working continuously. Stop and take breaks. Don't work like a machine.
- Keep your work at work. Avoid laptops and office calls at home.
- Learning to say 'no' is very important for your health.
- Make time for sleep, food, and fun with friends. This will help you stay in a good mood.
- Go to the gym, take a walk, or do some stretching at home. Exercise improves mood and promotes sleep .
- Make time for painting, music or whatever you like.
- If you are facing a lot of problems, then definitely seek help from a therapist or counselor.
