Constant fatigue and job burnout are bedfellows. Mental and physical ailments are both involved in job burnout. Chronic fatigue resulting from multiple factors that reduce one's ability to cope with stress are reasons that lead to job burnout. Continuing stress in a person's job is another causative agent leading to chronic fatigue and job burnout.
Burnout leads to mental withdrawal from the job due to:
* job strain
* work demands
* strain of your job
Some of the main symptoms include:
* withdrawal from contact with people
* lack of energy
* drawing away from contact with people
* minimizing contact with people
Burnout in the workplace affects 25-35% of the workforce. Scientists have wondered what role the stress response system plays in the syndrome but the results have not been enlightening. The problem is that tests of the stress system cannot show any problem until the system has reached a level of dysfunction that is significant.
Our body's functions range over a wide continuum and the tests we currently use aren't precise enough to scan this wide range and detect a loss of function. Generally, they'll only pick-up dysfunction when we reach a high level of breakdown.
Because the objective testing has low power to detect any problems, the patient's symptoms remain unexplained. As a result, treatment options are few and the patient continues to suffer while he's told that there is nothing wrong.
A single cause of a disease is an unusual event, yet most believe that one cause is the primary feature of disease. Multiple causes of disease are the most common factors and that's what's so confounding to medicine in chronic fatigue.
Here are some of the other possible causes of chronic fatigue and burnout: depression, muscle weakness, lack of exercise, poor diet, post-viral syndrome, and cellular toxicity.
As in all fatigue syndromes, such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, multiple chemical sensitivity, and all the milder, non-diagnosable fatigue complexes that millions suffer from, there are no known therapies within the framework of modern medicine.
As a result, more and more people are looking into alternative therapies. Millions of people are actually now spending more money out-of-pocket on alternatives than on conventional medical care.
Many individuals report success with these therapies despite the criticisms of modern medicine. It makes claims of lack of studies even though much work and research has been completed. Medicine wants to maintain its stranglehold on all aspects of health care treatment.
Medicine is against the use of nutritional supplements and admonishes those who support their use. It formed opinions based on a belief system that supplements were of no value, not based on facts. In respect to diet, medicine still promotes low-fat eating despite the fact that it contributes to obesity, diabetes, and inflammatory diseases. Medicine doesn't explore or do research on any of these topics and often makes unsubstantiated claims while accusing the other side of exactly the same action.
