Lesson Overview

4.1 – Defining Stress vs. Burnout: Stress and burnout may feel similar at first, but they affect your mind and body in different ways. Stress happens when you feel overwhelmed by responsibilities, causing tension that usually improves with rest and support. Burnout develops when stress lasts too long without relief, leaving you emotionally drained and detached from things you used to enjoy. Stress makes you care a lot, while burnout makes you feel like you don’t care anymore. When stress continues day after day, your energy drops, motivation fades, and simple tasks feel exhausting. Recognizing the difference helps you respond early with healthy coping strategies. Paying attention to changes in mood, sleep, or focus shows whether tension is temporary or becoming more serious. When you understand these signals, you can protect your mental and physical health. Knowing when to rest, set boundaries, or ask for help stops stress from growing into burnout and keeps your wellness strong.
