Burnout book - Burnout: How to Manage Your Nervous System Before it Manages You by Dr Claire Plumbly. If your nervous system feels like it’s constantly braced for impact — this book is for you. You might be outwardly functioning, but inwardly fraying. Whether you're crashing from one activity to another on autopilot, snapping at the smallest things, or fantasising about a dramatic exit from it all — this is NOT your fault. You’re burning out. And it’s not because you’re weak. It’s because your dysregulated nervous system has been pushing through on it's own for too long - and it cannot keep it up any longer.

Dr. Claire Plumbly - Dr Claire Plumbly is a UK Clinical Psychologist, EMDR Consultant & author specialising in burnout, PTSD, anxiety, and trauma-informed wellbeing. This is her website for keynotes, workshops & media work.
