Stress and burnout

Stress has various definitions (my preferred: when demands outstrip resources).

Burn out: Emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation, low sense of personal accomplishment.

Most doctors (everyone?) will experience these.

Complications include poor performance at work and home and probably physical ill health.

What should be done by others? Supervision, psychological support and feedback?

By oneself, when stressed or identifying onset of stress reaction?

Will vary from person to person....
