The 4th phase: General Burnout and emotional alienation
One of the most difficult and important phases of burnout is the 4th phase. It is also known as emotional alienation and chronic burnout. At this point, the daily experience of burnout has become the stressful norm. When someone reaches this point, they often feel very alone and empty, or they are always rushing. This can have serious emotional and professional consequences.
The characteristics of a typical burnout
At this extreme point in the burnout cycle, the person experiences deep disappointment and dejection. The enthusiasm that was initially for the job or everyday activities has developed into a burdensome obligation. There is a noticeable drop in performance and scepticism can set in. A strong feeling that one's own efforts are insignificant and bring no recognisable benefit or success spreads.
What is the right way to deal with the 4th phase?
Combating this advanced stage of burnout requires a comprehensive strategy that combines professional intervention and personal commitment. Yes, it is not easy to break out of emotional alienation and chronic burnout.

Professional support is needed to tackle the deep causes of chronic burnout and develop useful tools.
2. rethink your life and career goals:
In order to find meaning and fulfilment in work and life again, it is often essential to rethink your current life and career goals.

This process enables you to make changes that are better suited to your personal values and desired lifestyle. By realigning your goals, you can achieve deeper satisfaction in your professional career and personal life.
