RESET
The neurobiology of burnout and restoring adaptive capacity

Tired is fixed by rest. Burnout isn’t. You can sleep a whole weekend and wake up the same.

“I’m done” is the feeling. “Burnout” is the mechanism — cortisol, system drain. Same stop sign: the body hits red and we keep driving.

Burnout is not a long weekend problem. Allostatic load stacks until rest stops working. Markers: flat reward, sleep that doesn’t restore, cognitive fog. Recovery starts with capacity, not productivity hacks.
