MHS and MOS Town Hall To Your Health: Suicide Awareness and Prevention

MAHM In This Together

Burnout in the workplace is a real challenge for #MHS medical providers, service members and others in the military medical community. Two years operating in the COVID-19 pandemic created conditions that contribute to burnout, like overwork, isolation, and increased occupational stress. A strong sense of community is a one of the best ways to #BattleBurnout. Remember that we’re #InThisTogether, and check out this page to learn about signs of burnout. https://tricare.mil/HealthWellness/Featured-Health-Topic

MAHM Effective Treatment

While many people may feel that their mental health is out of their control, effective treatment is available. You can find resources here https://www.tricare.mil/mentalhealth #InThisTogether #MentalFlex #BattleBurnout

MAHM Self-Care

Service members are highly motivated and mission-focused, but we all need to take breaks to #BattleBurnout. Self-care can be as simple as taking 10-minute breaks during the work day, reading a book, or taking a walk to decompress. https://www.cdc.gov/mentalhealth/stress-coping/care-for-yourself/index.html #InThisTogether #MentalFlex

MAHM Signs of Burnout

Workplace burnout describes feelings associated or caused by chronic, unmanaged workplace stress. Signs of burnout include: Loss of motivation at a job you used to be passionate about, lashing out at colleagues or family members, depression or anxiety, and being overly self-critical.
