Everyone is talking about burnout, making this affliction suddenly socially acceptable. If striving for recognition and success is exaggerated and the balance between work, family life and leisure is lost, it can lead to the so-called burnout, a condition of emotional, mental and physical exhaustion.

Why do more and more people suffer from burnout? Why is it the latest fashion to be a burnout victim? Do the strong suffer from burnout, while the weak suffer from depression? How to survive a burnout? What responsibilities do employers have?
