This emotional burden often leads us to have deep depression and mental fatigue, and we even become static when making decisions, since we feel unmotivated to do things and all we want is to stay asleep and locked in our room.
The problem is that if we do not recognize that we are in the midst of emotional exhaustion, we could be putting our own health (physical and mental) at risk, to the point of thinking about attempting against our own life.
Signs to detect emotional exhaustion
There are many different causes that can generate emotional exhaustion since it all depends on how we perceive or assimilate responsibilities. Do you want to know the signs?
1. You get angry about everything
People who suffer from emotional exhaustion tend to get irritated by everything that happens to them, be it good or bad. This happens because they usually have difficulty falling asleep and that is why they often lose self-control and are in a bad mood.
These types of people usually become very sensitive to criticism and gestures of disapproval, so they often get upset, and their relationships with others become pure pitched battles.
2. Unmotivated
We can all become demotivated at some point when things don't go as expected. However, when you lose interest in doing many things that you used to enjoy, it is a sign of emotional exhaustion. Well, mentally it will be difficult to concentrate and find something positive about what was done.
Demotivation is a problem that can lead to chronic depression because you can come to think that you are no longer productive and that there are no more illusions, goals, and objectives in life.
3. Trouble sleeping
People with emotional exhaustion have trouble falling asleep because they are thinking a thousand times about how they are going to solve their conflicts. They are usually impatient, anxious, or nervous, which is why they do not usually sleep and rest.
It can also happen that they sleep but wake up every so often because they are thinking about their problems.
4. Panic or anxiety attacks
Emotional exhaustion can lead people to panic or anxiety attacks. These are manifested through fear, rapid heartbeat, dizziness, chest pain, shortness of breath, or irrational thoughts.
The problem is that people may believe that they are going to die, due to the severe anguish they suffer because they believe that there are too many conflicts and they do not have confidence in their ability to resolve things.
5. Sensitivity to the top
People with mental exhaustion are very sensitive to everything that happens to them, they can cry at any time, because they think that their problems are too many, so they are hopeless when they do not find a solution to their situation.
Since everything is negative and there is no clarity or rationality in their mind, it is likely that they will think about death or self-harm.
6. Nobody understands them
Another sign of mental and emotional exhaustion is feeling disconnected from others, that is, they believe that no one understands them because they don't feel the same way. This can lead people to believe that they are constantly misunderstood, judged, and criticized by others; for this reason, they decide to isolate themselves and lock themselves in their own world.
It is difficult for them to start conversations for fear of being rejected, so they choose to remain alone and anonymous.
7. Cognitive problems
People with mental and emotional exhaustion often have trouble concentrating, paying attention, and memory. When a person is stressed, his mind is focused exclusively on the problem, because he wants to find solutions immediately.
In the long run, this problem becomes an obstacle to making decisions, remembering things, and thinking or functioning normally.
Keep in mind that emotional exhaustion can be prevented and treated with these simple tips:
Set limits on your responsibilities
Be flexible with yourself
Find a moment of relaxation and fun
Make a list of priorities
Express emotions in different ways such as writing, painting, drawing, dancing, etc.
Work on self-esteem (confidence and security) in oneself
If you think you need help, it is advisable to go to a therapist, because they are the specialists who will help you change your way of thinking in order to heal your mind.
Also take into account the importance of learning to control your emotions, which will help you see problems from different perspectives, seeing that your problems have a solution.
