Cognitive Regulation perspective
CR for burnout rebuilds the rhythm between activation and recovery, then redesigns the meaning structure of work so the system has something worth recharging for.
Common signs
- Sunday-evening dread that has stopped lifting on Monday morning.
- Feeling cynical about work that used to mean something.
- Chronic exhaustion no holiday seems to fix.
Why holidays don't fix burnout
Burnout is a regulation pattern, not a fatigue debt. Time off helps, but if the pattern returns on day one back, the underlying system has to be retrained.
