5. Self-Medicating

Exhaustion can cause some people to try to compensate for the feeling of being depleted by indulging in unhealthy habits like drinking too much alcohol, smoking and eating junk food.

Self-medicating to get through a stressful period can also involve unhealthy behaviors such as relying on sleeping pills to fall asleep, too many cups of coffee to get through a busy morning at work and needing to de-stress at the end of the day with a few too many glasses of wine.3Neckel S. ‘Burnout Fatigue Exhaustion An Interdisciplinary Perspective on a Modern Affliction.’ ResearchGate, March 2021.
