Burnout: How to Fight Work Exhaustion

When dedication becomes depletion, how do you reclaim your life?

In an era of relentless connectivity, economic uncertainty, and high-pressure work cultures, millions of professionals are running on empty. We are told to work harder, build resilience, or simply rest over the weekend. Yet, we wake up every morning feeling just as exhausted as when our heads hit the pillow.

In "Burnout, How to Fight Work Exhaustion", consultant psychiatrist Dr Sabry Fattah combines over forty years of clinical experience with deep personal insight to deconstruct the workplace crisis of our time. Drawing from cutting-edge research, vivid case studies, and practical self-assessment tools, Dr Fattah reveals why burnout is not a personal failure, but a predictable response to unsustainable systems.
