I am a graduate engineer, work as a projectmanager and live in Germany. I had several simultaneous projects, my mother was very sick for 2 years and together with house building and private voluntary work it was too much. I burned out and everything collapsed around me This book shows my very private experience with burnout. It gives a view on the different phases, feelings and especially the mental development and steps. I felt helpless and lost thinking there is no way out, until I learned my lessons in rehabilitation. From thereon I had the key what and how I had to change in my thinking and behavior. The way back was hard and not straight, but successful at the end. Thank you God Please find some comments on the book from readers. i think they describe it best in their own words. "With this book you give the reader a very personal insight into the circumstances which led to your burnout and show how you can overcome the misery by yourself. I can see the particular value of this for a reader who is possibly confronted with a similar situation." (H.-U.K.) "I am the managing director of a company and, as such, I have a lot of responsibility for my employees. I read the book and recommended it to an employee affected by this as well as her department" (M.G. from H.) "Thanks for this open and honest book I think that it should not only be read by people at risk of burnout, but also by their partners and relatives." (A.U. from R.) "This book really got under my skin. The fears, anxiety and doubt are very easy to understand. Above all, it is brilliantly successful at describing how quickly a person can get to such a point. "I'll manage it," "It has to work now," "It's bound to get better soon" - most people know these thoughts All the more valuable is a book that makes it clear that you need to be CAREFUL - listen to your body The experiences in this book can help in a burnout situation, and for that, thank you very much " (I.M. from N.) "Wow I am speechless (doesn't happen so often ) Very brave und "brutally" open in the description of your own situation " (R.R. from O.) "The beginning of the book didn't really benefit me, but I found the letter to a friend really good." (T.D. from M.) "I found it very interesting how the stressful situations were described and how the physical reactions were successfully dealt with in order to be able to control them" (K.U. from R.) "I'm sorry, but I was never in such a situation and it is hard for me to put myself in your shoes. I would have reacted differently, sooner so that it wouldn't have gone so far. Therefore, I personally cannot really relate to the described feelings and emotions" (Anonymous, known to the author) "It isn't easy to write such a profound book about yourself " (anonymous, known to the author) "As a person who has been affected, I couldn't put this book down. I am deeply impressed by how intensively and openly the situations have been described" (I.R. from A.)
