Stress & burnout help in Penang

When stress becomes too much

Some stress is a normal part of life. But when it builds up for months without a break, it can affect your health, your mood and the people around you. Signs include:

• feeling exhausted even after rest or a holiday
• dreading work, or feeling detached and cynical about it
• irritability, tearfulness or a short temper
• poor sleep, headaches, stomach upsets or frequent illness
• trouble concentrating, or relying on alcohol or caffeine to cope

Burnout can also be the start of depression or an anxiety disorder. Read more in our article burnout or just tired?
