burnout

My fridge used to be a shrine to burnout — shelves of vitamins, maybe a jar of mustard, nothing resembling a meal.

A spokesperson for NHS England said it recognised staff were at risk of burnout and was "committed" to ensuring they got the support they needed to provide safe care.

In part as a result of watching species after species go extinct, climate change burnout, in which people are overwhelmed by the severity of the climate crisis, and climate doomerism, in which people see climate change as irreversible and destruction as inevitable, are both increasing.

Many people report experiencing climate burnout — perhaps after years of trying to reduce their carbon footprint without seeing larger-scale changes from people in power.

One GP told the BBC that the increased workload resulting from having to assess and then escalate unreliable results was leading to "increased burnout and people wanting to leave the profession".
