Psychology Glossary

Burnout: This is an actual physical and emotional problem that results from excessive on-the- job hassles (oh, can I relate to this). The symptoms of burnout include fatigue and physical exhaustion, depression, mental fatigue, sleeping problems, etc. Although anyone with a job is susceptible to burnout, teachers, police officers, social workers, and doctors are more often subjected to the types of hassles that lead to burnout.
