This is a self-reflection, not a diagnosis. These are original questions written for BrainSheets — not the Maslach Burnout Inventory or any other licensed instrument — and the results are not a clinical score. They're meant to help you notice patterns and decide whether to reach out. If you're struggling, please talk to a trusted person or a mental health professional. 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 (call or text 988).
