Stressed or Burned Out

These past few weeks feeling ko burned out na ako, pero feeling ko lang pala yun. Stressed lang pala ako. So you might ask what's the difference between stress and burened out?

Most of us are under some amount of stress, positive or negative, at any given time. Indeed, positive stress can help a person be more productive and increase motivation. Burnout, on the other hand, is a gradual process whereby chronic stress leads to feelings of negativity and malaise and, ultimately, results in the loss of motivation and interest in work. (I love my work and the challenge that it brings to me.) A person suffering from burnout is likely to be chronically tired, feel physically and mentally run-down, have general aches and pains, have a profound dread of going to work, be mentally absent when at work, and appear to simply not care.(Thank God di pa nangyayari sa akin to. hahaha!)  And, if that doesn't sound serious enough, the overwhelming feelings of despair and failure a burnout sufferer feels may lead to drug or alcohol abuse, a mental or physical breakdown, or even premature death.

Sana matuloy na as soon as possible yung lakad namin nila Poala. I was also planning to go back again in HK since lagi ko na syang napapanaginipan, kaso I'm saving my money for my Bali Indonesia November trip. Pag niswerte pwede pang Paris so that I can catch the last tennis match of my gorgeous future husband to be MARAT SAFIN. hahaha! (yeah dream on!). Basta, gusto kong mag out of town para mag unwind, uber stress na ako!!!! whahaha!
