Are you burnt out, or just tired?
This quick assessment is designed to help you understand whether what you’re experiencing is everyday stress, mounting pressure, or signs of burnout.
If you’ve been holding it together for a long time, feeling emotionally flat, constantly behind, or unable to properly switch off, this is a simple place to start.
Savvy’s work for individuals focuses on burnout, prolonged stress, recovery, and helping people regain energy, clarity, and steadiness.

Your score
Add up your total out of 48.
0–12: Likely under strain, but not currently in burnout territory
You may be dealing with normal stress, but your system is still coping reasonably well. This is a good point to make small changes before pressure builds.
13–24: Signs of sustained stress
You’re carrying more than is sustainable, and it may already be affecting your energy, mood, or clarity. This is worth paying attention to now, not later.
25–36: Strong signs of burnout risk
Your current pace or load may be too much for too long. You may be functioning, but at a cost. Support, recovery, and clearer boundaries are likely needed.
37–48: Significant signs of burnout
You may be emotionally, mentally, and physically depleted. Slowing down, getting support, and creating real space for recovery matters here.
What your result means
This assessment is not a diagnosis. It’s a reflection tool to help you notice what may be happening beneath the surface.
Burnout does not always look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like coping, producing, staying reliable, and quietly feeling worse.
If your score is high, or if several questions felt uncomfortably familiar, it may be time to stop asking whether you can keep going like this and start asking what needs to change.
This assessment is for informational and reflective purposes only and is not a medical or psychological diagnosis.
