The Concept of BURNOUT
Keywords:
syndrome; occur simultaneously; individual process; three stagesAbstract
Apparently, burnout is a recent phenomenon, although the human condition has been
around since immemorial times, violence is part of human life, it even seems to be innate, so it
manifests itself from a very young age. Combat strategies date back to childhood, and the school only
assumes an ameliorating role. The palliative solutions we invoke do not combat, but improve what is
possible.
