Recently I read the book "The Stress of Life" by Hans Selye and had this obvious connection that work is such a primary source of stress that it makes you more than what this article talks about. That it can make you chronically ill without you knowing because you're too busy trying to...survive. GAS or general adaptation syndrome explains burnout quite simply. There's an alarm reaction that happens in us. Next a resistance phase where our bodies try to fight it off. Finally, an exhaustion phase where we let the stressor take its course(aka burnout). “It is not stress that kills us, It is our reaction to it” - Hans Selye
