Depressions, Burnout or Both?

What is that?

It is often talked about, written or reported in the media. And yet, what is it?
The term "burnout" is concerned, in my opinion not very happy, because when something is burned, there it hardly to rescue anything. And that's not right! Therefore, I consider the basically correct, accurate medical term for.
The professional world is talking about fatigue syndrome (exhaustion) or fatigue (tiredness), weakness and constant fatigue caused, or under a great psychological persists pressure . It is often a combination of both for a disease picture. Characteristic for a fatigue syndrome is, that the parties that are involved, are often frustrated, by seeing strong, external causes as the reason for their problems. While the typical depression in negative thinking, self-accusing thoughts, suicidal thoughts and loss of appetite, prevail. However, you should always first exclude a viral illness or other physical factors.
A fatigue syndrome is caused by prolonged stress, often several months. The person sees no possibility of subjective equilibrium in his mental state to restore. This feeling of helplessness sets in a downtrend, which may lead to self-abandonment.
But if, you shouldn't let it come so far, if you feel that your own state of mind is going in such a direction, you should seek for help earlier, there are several ways to get out of this "quagmire". A companion (therapist, counselor) who can advise and help you.

See things in relative terms....

Not everything has the same importance.

We often are under pressure for things which are basically not very important. It's good not to lose it out of sight. The real priorities, that's what's all about. Simply look less at the people, that have things "better" than you. One of the reasons, that we are not contented in the western countries is the fact, that we compare ourselves and our income always with others. People often doing things, because the neighbours or the "friends" also have it. Think less of the status and other outward appearances.
To attempt, in the good sense of the word, to take yourself less important "outside". Lay the main focus once "really" on itself, discover and develop the real "I". We have lost this often out of sight. It saves a lot of stress, if you don't compare yourself and standing in the centre of the universe, that you have to make always everything perfect, allways wants to be right and always everything has to happen, like we want it to be.
Even if you feel responsible for everything, then you take yourself too serious, too importantly. If you try to look quite often the situation from "outside", you'll notice that many things are in perspective....
From time to time, also Humor helps....
In this sense :D
