Beat Burnout Why it's so hard to reach out for help in burnout until you hit a crisis point
Welcome to the second season of the Do Yourself No Harm Podcast.
Thank you so much to everyone that has listened to and shared the episodes from last season, your support is very much appreciated.
I'm starting this new season with some of my reflections on why it is so hard to seek help before you reach a crisis point in burnout.
The reasons covered include:
Working culture
Guilt and shame
Not being taught how to recognise the signs of burnout in ourselves or others
The recovery paradox: how we throw ourselves into maladaptive coping strategies that inadvertently fuel burnout
Changes to your brain structure and function
Colleagues might not notice changes- the burnt out person still turns up to work
