Whether you are a professional who works in the field caring for patients, or you are a caregiver, helping a loved one who may be elderly or ill, you may be susceptible to compassion fatigue and burnout.
Compassion fatigue is a specific form of burnout due to a professional’s deep investment in helping others, particularly caretaking or providing emotional support to others. It’s a deep physical, emotional and spiritual exhaustion accompanied by acute emotional pain. It can feel like you have nothing more to give to your patients.
Compassion fatigue happens when someone becomes depleted from repeated exposure to the trauma or adverse circumstances of others. Healthcare workers are at high risk of developing compassion fatigue, especially those on the frontline.
According to a report by British Medical Journal, it’s ironic that the most empathetic people are most vulnerable to compassion fatigue because they often tend to put their own needs last. This can slowly wear you down.
In addition, it’s important to accept that you need to fill your own emotional cup so that you can serve others the way you hope to. For example, if you are a healthcare worker, you may be better at your job and enjoy it more if you look after yourself first.
Here is how to prevent and manage compassion fatigue and burnout before it gets unmanageable and negatively affects your health.
