Tired isn’t the same as burned out. Find out where you stand.

Burnout rarely announces itself with a bang — it creeps in while you keep functioning. This test measures the three facets that matter: exhaustion, work strain, and inner detachment. So you get clarity before your body demands it.

  • Your scores across three dimensions — exhaustion, work strain, detachment
  • An honest read instead of scaremongering — with a clear view of your overall picture
  • A concrete recovery plan with prioritized steps and a 7-day plan

Sound familiar?

Exhaustion often isn’t taken seriously until nothing works anymore. Yet it sends signals long before that — you just have to know how to read them.

Weekends don’t recharge you anymore

Two days off used to be enough to refill the battery. Now you start Monday almost as empty as you ended Friday — and wonder when that flipped.

You’re functioning — but that’s about it

Tasks get done, deadlines are met, everything looks fine from the outside. But the feeling of actually being present got lost somewhere along the way.

Things that used to matter leave you cold

Projects, people, plans: what used to fulfill you feels far away now. That inner distance isn’t a character flaw — it’s a protective mechanism that deserves attention.

“Stop making such a fuss” — you tell yourself

You would have told anyone else to slow down long ago. That standard just doesn’t seem to apply to you. A clear-eyed check-in helps you take your own situation as seriously as you’d take anyone else’s.

The three dimensions of your result

Burnout isn’t a single score — it’s a pattern. That’s why we measure three facets separately: high exhaustion with intact connection calls for different steps than growing detachment on a full battery.

Exhausted vs. Energized

How full or empty your battery really is — physically and emotionally. The core question underneath: does rest even restore you anymore?

Overloaded vs. Resilient

How far your work pushes you past your limits — and how much margin is left between demands and reserves.

Detached vs. Connected

How close you are to the people and tasks that actually matter to you — or whether inner withdrawal is already working as a shield.

What your result looks like

No buying blind: take a look at a real sample result first — with the overall read, all three dimension scores, and the complete recovery plan. That’s exactly the kind of result you’ll get.

  • The overall read plus all three dimensions in one clear graphic
  • An analysis of each dimension with everyday examples and actionable tips
  • A prioritized action plan and a 7-day plan for your first steps
  • Context profiles: what your pattern means for work, relationships, and yourself

Find out where you stand in three steps

1

Answer the questions

24 statements, a 7-point scale, no right or wrong. Answer the way things have actually been for you in recent weeks — not the way they should be.

2

We analyze

We analyze your response pattern across all three dimensions and put together your personal read — in under a minute.

3

Understand and course-correct

You get your strain profile with analysis, examples, and a recovery plan. The first step is often the most important one — and by then, it’s already done.

Grounded in research, not gut feeling

Our test builds on the construct framework of the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) — one of the most thoroughly studied burnout instruments worldwide. The CBI treats exhaustion as the core of burnout and cleanly distinguishes what it relates to: yourself, your work, and your contact with people and tasks.

With 24 statements on a 7-point scale, we measure where you stand on the three dimensions of exhaustion, work strain, and detachment. Instead of a single burnout score, you get a differentiated profile — because high exhaustion with intact connection tells a different story than the beginnings of inner withdrawal, and each calls for a different response.

Important to know: this test is a screening for self-reflection, not a diagnosis. It shows you where you stand right now — the medical assessment belongs in professional hands.

This test is a self-reflection screening, not a diagnostic tool. It doesn’t replace an evaluation by a physician or mental-health professional. If your exhaustion persists or is weighing heavily on you, please reach out to your doctor, a mental-health professional, or a local crisis line — burnout responds well to treatment, and getting support early isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s the smartest step you can take.

Frequently asked questions

About 5 minutes. The 24 statements are deliberately kept compact — especially when energy is scarce, the test itself shouldn’t add to the load.

The test itself is free, and you’ll see your overall read right away. The full in-depth analysis with your dimension profile, detailed report, and recovery plan unlocks with 7-day access for $1.95 — then $39.95 every 4 weeks. Cancel anytime.

The test follows the construct framework of the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, an established research instrument. 24 statements across three dimensions give you a far more reliable picture than the usual five-question checks. And as with any self-assessment: the more honestly you answer, the more accurate your result.

Yes. You don’t need an account to take the test, and your result can only be reached via your personal link. Especially important with a topic like this: no one sees it but you — not even your employer.

No — and we say that deliberately and clearly. The test is a screening for self-reflection: it shows you how pronounced typical signs of burnout currently are for you. Only a physician or a licensed mental-health professional can make a diagnosis. If your score comes back high or you’ve been feeling low for a while, that’s exactly the right next step.

The two overlap in many symptoms, such as exhaustion and withdrawal, but they’re not the same: burnout is closely tied to sustained overload, while depression can exist independently of it — and both can occur together. Our depression screening can serve as an additional point of reflection; telling them apart in your individual case belongs in professional hands.

Your battery deserves better than “just push through.”
