ByPatrick Donnelly

15% of people who are seen as burnouts fall under "enthusiasm burnout syndrome". This enthusiasm type is often in "people with ambition" who strongly desire to succeed at work, tend to work until extreme fatigue conditions are felt, and it can be said to be the image type of "burnout exhaustion syndrome due to overwork". People who develop enthusiastic burnout syndrome tend to overlook complaints because they tend to think that the company's organization and hierarchy are hindering their own successes and goals in order to cope with work stress.

This lack of challenge, because it fails to produce satisfactory results, gradually loses interest in work, often daily tasks are monotonous and irritating and often feel less stimulative It seems that there is a tendency to try to cope with stress by avoiding jobs and interpersonal relationships, because it tends to keep working felt.

◆3: worn-out (fatigue type)

ByBronski Beat

"Fatigue burnout exhaustion syndrome" is confirmed most frequently as 21%. The exhausted type tends to turn his eyes away from its difficulty when feeling difficulties in work. The emotion that this type of people often holds is "giving up", despite having the goal that they want to achieve, there is a characteristic that it lacks the motivation to polish itself for that purpose.

Although this study has revealed that there are at least three types of burnout syndrome, there is a sufficient possibility that there are people with other characteristics that do not fit these types. Researchers believe that classifying burnout syndromes according to their characteristics should help develop appropriate therapies for that type.
