Am I burnt out?

Eighteen statements, about three minutes. No email needed to see your score.

Burnout is not one thing. The World Health Organization describes it as having three parts — exhaustion, growing mental distance, and reduced effectiveness — and which one is loudest in you changes what will actually help. That is what this check is for.

What it looks at

Part 1

Energy

Whether rest is still refilling the tank — or you're running on caffeine and willpower.

Part 2

Distance

Whether work, or people, have gone flat — and you're more cynical than you want to be.

Part 3

Effectiveness

Whether things take far longer than they used to, and nothing feels finished.

Please read this first. This is a reflection tool, not a diagnostic test. It cannot tell burnout and depression apart. A low score does not rule out burnout or another health problem, and a high one is a reason to talk to a doctor rather than a substitute for it.
