  • The technical term for that feeling is called “burnout” - and it’s something every developer has encountered

    What Is Burnout?

    The World Health Organization (WHO) defines burnout as an “occupational phenomenon” rather than a medical condition. WHO says burnout results from “chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed” and is characterized by the following three dimensions:

    Feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion. Increased mental distance from your job, or negative or cynical feelings about your job. Reduced professional efficacy. In other words, burnout is a work-induced experience that can manifest as emotional, physical, and/or psychological symptoms.
