The cure is rest. Since it was identified by Freudenberger and elaborated by Maslach this has been the accepted treatment.
Of course, this isn't much use to you if you can't rest due to your external commitments, but sometimes even just identifying that you have a problem can help.
- FooHentai 7y agoImportant to recognize that it's an accepted treatment. If we discover and confirm more treatments in future, which I think is likely, they'll sit right alongside rest and perhaps be equally or even more effective than rest. Bonus being they may be compatible with continuation of work. Not that I'm a zealot for work-till-u-die, but it can really help as far as the continuation of non-work life activities is concerned to have some incoming rolling in. Some folks have pretty good in-band home remedies, or at least growth inhibitors, for burnout. Bringing them to bear isn't done by everyone, or may not even be universally applicable, but I'm not sure rest will bear out to be the only cure for this ailment in the long run.
- rusk 7y agoWell what we're talking about is nervous exhaustion. Beyond the point of prevention I find it hard to imagine any other cure that wouldn't make it worse in the long run.
- amelius 7y agoI agree with this. If you still have to work, then consider to sleep 10+ hours a day.
