Being away from home, away from your loved ones?
And no, you can't take a vacation...
How do you handle burnout?

Can't do... I need to finish my clinical rotation in medical field...
And it seems that I could not even find a good friend.
Being in the hospital and school 24/7 leaves me not much options...
Any other suggestion?

If you can't take a vacation, find a way to take small "vacations" every day. Find a relaxing and pleasant activity that you can engage in every day for an hour, a half hour, however much time is available...go to a gym, take a walk somewhere, hang out in a bookstore, eat at a nice restaurant...whatever makes you feel good. Give yourself a little bit of time every day when you just don't think about work, and you just take care of yourself. It can make all the difference in preserving your sanity.

You just have to try to make time for yourself to relax. If you can somehow schedule 30-60 minutes a day where you do something you like and just forget about everything else, maybe that will help. I find that yoga helps me relax. I have a couple DVDs, so I can just do it at home on my own schedule. I don't have to worry about getting to a yoga class on time. Is there any kind of music that relaxes you? Maybe you could listen to that kind of music in the car as you go to & from school or the hospital.

If burnout is from work then for your own health it's best to take a leave of absense and do something that you enjoy even if it's still working but in another area or field.

Music,candles,making new friends,enjoying nature,e-mailing and talking on the phone to faraway loved ones...
Hang in there:)
OK--try talking to those in the same field,who've already been through what you're dealing with now,and perhaps they can help.(I'm a 24/7 mom of 4--one who is disabled--and the only thing I can do on some days is take a deep breath and keep going!)

Take a three day wreck from each and every thing wedding ceremony suitable. Do in spite of you prefer. bypass eat junk nutrition or save on the mall or soak interior the tub or each and every of the above. get remote from the full wedding ceremony element with a "who provides a darn" suggestions-set for a stable 3 days. till you do not have an officiant coated up your wedding ceremony will take place. this is the substantial section. As for being not your self, human beings ought to "get" that so do not worry approximately it. i understand you don't love it in spite of if it is so difficult to avert. cut back your self some slack. in case you should, say sorry earlier than time and say "i'm so under pressure, please positioned up with me being a soreness interior the butt." Sorry it is making you not seem forward on your day however the best information is there will be different days on your existence which would be wonderful too. it is not your "one and purely shot" at impressive.

Its really hard...Especially if you are having to work a lot in the situation...Some people go out and drink or do other things to take their mind off of what they are tired of doing....Just realize that there will be an end to whatever it is that you are doing...And if you really cannot stand it anymore...Maybe its time to reevaluate your situation....
