Burn Out Syndrome

The term "burn-out syndrome" was coined in the 1970's by Herbert Freudenberger,
a New York psychoanalyst and is described as a state of physical and mental
exhaustion caused by one's professional life. A supportive definition has also
recently been provided by The National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health ( USA ), the federal agency responsible for conducting research and making recommendations for the prevention of work related illnesses. It says, "perhaps now more than ever before, job stress poses a threat to the health of workers."

Burn-out Syndrome is described as :

1.	a compulsion to prove oneself
2.	working harder to meet high expectations
3.	neglecting personal needs
4.	displacement of conflicts
5.	revision of personal values
6.	denial of emerging problems
7.	withdrawal
8.	obvious behavioural changes
9.	de-personalisation
10.	inner emptiness
11.	depression
12.	physical and mental exhaustion
13.	burn-out syndrome

Burn out syndrome is associated with the advanced stages of adrenal exhaustion and requires a complete re-evaluation of one's personal and professional life. See mind programming for more details.
