Burnout: Agree with Dr. Fowler on personal stress management practices. You also need to review the specific issues of your workplace, and see how your work aligns with your personal needs. Also, some employers do not support their front-line workers with resources or staffing to do their jobs effectively, which leads to ongoing stress & burnout. Toxic leadership causes a lot of burnout too.
