Tension in such areas quickly leads to nervous exhaustion with the progression of anxiety and psychosomatic manifestations.

It should be understood that in such cases, just relaxation and self-regulation techniques are not always enough. Even by temporarily relieving tension and stress, the individual will return to the problematic feeling until he resolves the inner conflict that causes him to react in a similarly painful way. On the other hand, working with a psychologist will allow you to competently analyze the symptoms, factors and causes of emotional burnout, as well as find the root of the problem, allowing you to enjoy your work again.
