With workforce and labor shortages from retail to medical to mental healthcare fields, burnout is now a more pressing problem for society than ever. In response, Supportiv, the peer-to-peer support network, publishes a new collection of resources to help regular people support themselves and others in the battle against burnout.
BERKELEY, Calif., Sep. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In a new collection of articles, Supportiv, the pioneer in Conversational Care™ and Precision Peer Support™, provides resources for battling burnout and preventing it in the first place.
Burnout is an understandable response to external problems and pressures. It's not the individual's fault, and a person can't just think themselves out of it. However, taking proactive action against burnout can help individuals feel better both at work and in personal life.
Supportiv CEO and Co-Founder Helena Plater-Zyberk gives context for why burnout is such a pressing matter: "Burnout has besieged our nation. The US tends to approach mental health struggles in a reactionary way. The problem with giving only reactionary attention to burnout? Research shows that it can take up to five years to fully recover. When wait until reaching a crisis of exhaustion and low motivation, even your best healing efforts will take a while to show results."
Supportiv Co-Founder Pouria Mojabi elaborates: "There are ways to soften the impact of burnout on your life satisfaction and productivity before you've fully healed. Supportiv's new articles are chock-full of these strategies. But the burnout recovery process requires immense patience and perseverance."
