The most efficient mitigation is saying no to any additional obligation, and most probably also to some current obligations you already had accepted.

Any extra task thrown at me just snowballs those feelings until I become paralysed with indecision. It is important to 'shed the load' when you feel the onset of burnout. Don't take on anything new - just focus on finishing what you have, and then take a break or reward yourself accordingly before doing any more.
