- Feeling Emotionally Drained: A constant feeling of emotional exhaustion.
- Increased Cynicism: A negative or cynical attitude towards work or colleagues.
- Lack of Engagement: Decreased interest and enthusiasm in tasks and responsibilities.
- Feeling Inadequate: A sense of personal incompetence or ineffectiveness.
- Feeling Isolated: Feeling emotionally detached due to being far from familiar support systems.
- Sleep Problems: Difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up not feeling rested.
