You’re Not Failing — You’re Burnt Out
“I’m tired, but not just tired…”
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or like you’re running on fumes no matter how much rest you get — you might be experiencing burnout.
Burnout isn’t just stress. It’s what happens when your mind, body, and spirit are stretched past their limits for too long. And in today’s world — especially if you're juggling caregiving, trauma, work demands, or neurodivergence — it’s incredibly common.
At Rooted in Serenity Behavioral Health LLC, Tannia Salazar, APRN works with people who say things like:
“I can’t focus anymore, even on things I used to love.”
“I’m so tired all the time, but I can’t sleep well.”
“Everything just feels like too much.”
If any of that sounds familiar — you’re not alone. And you’re not failing. You’re burnt out.
Burnout Can Look Like…
Chronic fatigue, even after sleep
Brain fog, forgetfulness, trouble concentrating
Feeling emotionally numb or disconnected
Dread about everyday tasks
Physical symptoms like headaches, GI issues, or chest tightness
Anxiety, irritability, or waves of sadness you can’t explain
Is it burnout… or something else?
Burnout often overlaps with conditions like depression, anxiety, or ADHD. The lines can blur — and that’s okay. You don’t have to sort it out alone.
Sometimes burnout is a signal from your nervous system that it’s time for support. Psychiatric care doesn’t mean “pills and silence.” At Rooted in Serenity Behavioral Health LLC, we slow things down, listen deeply, and figure out what your brain needs to heal — whether that’s medication, lifestyle support, or simply being seen.
You Deserve to Feel Better
If you’re burnt out, it’s not because you’re weak. It’s because you’ve been strong for too long without enough rest, care, or support.
Here’s what care can look like:
Compassionate, trauma-informed telehealth visits
Personalized medication management
Root-cause conversations (not quick fixes)
A provider who really listens
You don’t have to do this alone.
Take the First Step
If this post resonated, reach out to schedule an appointment. You deserve care that meets you where you are — gently, without judgment.
Burnout doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means it’s time to rest and root into healing.
