Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) — Christina Maslach, UC Berkeley
Burnout is not just tiredness. It develops gradually through chronic work stress, emotional exhaustion, and a growing sense that nothing you do matters. This assessment measures three core burnout dimensions: exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced efficacy. If your score is high, Mental Detox can help — it's an AI-powered self-reflection tool built on CBT and ACT techniques to support burnout recovery, one day at a time.
Recovery from burnout starts with understanding what's draining you. Mental Detox guides you through daily structured reflection to process work stress and rebuild emotional resilience.
Emotional exhaustion, cynicism, no motivation at work, chronic fatigue — these are warning signs your mind is overloaded. Catching them early makes recovery significantly easier.
There's no quick fix. But daily emotional processing — naming what you feel, identifying your triggers, and building small recovery habits — is the most evidence-backed path forward.
