“Burnout can have its roots in childhood. Studies show that children who were bullied, who experienced abuse or neglect, had a parent in prison, lived in a home where there was mental illness, violence, substance abuse or the loss of a parent through any cause were more prone to develop diseases such as emphysema, mental health problems, substance abuse and obesity. These childhood experiences can predispose to burnout and the associated health and psychological problems in adolescence and adulthood.”
Not everyone has a traumatic childhood, but if you do or at least have something you need to get to the bottom of with yourself—do so. Problems probably rear their ugly heads in more ways than just burnout, so get to ridding yourself of them.
