Do you feel tired all the time, but don't know why? Does doing even the simplest and quickest of tasks make you feel exhausted and weary?
你有没有总是无缘无故会觉得累？有没有即使做最简单最快的任务也会让你感到疲惫？
We've made a video on seven signs of emotional burnout to find out more. Chronic fatigue can be caused by a number of different factors.
为了了解更多，我们制作了一个关于情绪倦怠的7个迹象的视频，慢性疲劳可以由许多不同因素引起。
Usually things like a poor diet, dehydration, lack of exercise, and a bad sleeping habit are to blame.
通常情况下，不良的饮食、脱水、缺乏锻炼和不良的睡眠习惯都是罪魁祸首。
But what if it isn't your physical health but rather your mental health that's the problem?
但如果不是身体健康问题而是心理健康问题呢？
If you're eating healthy, getting lots of sleep, and exercising regularly but still struggled to make it through most days, then the tiredness you feel is most likely due to emotional and mental distress.
如果你饮食健康，睡眠充足，经常锻炼，但大多数日子里还是得挣扎着挺过去，那么你感到的疲劳很可能是由于情绪和精神上的压力导致的。
With that said, here are six possible psychological reasons why you feel tired all the time.
也就是说，这里有6个可能的心理原因会让你一直感到疲劳。

Does your family barely ever get along with each other? Are your parents always screaming at one another?

Or perhaps you feel like they're all just taking advantage of you without any care for your personal wellbeing at all.

Maybe it's your work life that's got you feeling so burnt out all the time.
或许是你的工作生活让你一直感到如此疲惫。
Is your boss overworking you to the point where you have no work-life balance anymore? Or maybe all your work mates are trying to sabotage one another.
你的老板是否让你过度劳累以至于你已经失去了工作和生活的平衡？或者你所有的同事都在互相使坏心眼儿。

You often experienced sudden spikes in energy levels, which leads you to feeling mentally and emotionally drained.

Constant long-term exposure to high levels of stress is one of the leading causes behind emotional and mental exhaustion.
长期处于高水平压力之下是情绪和精神疲惫的主要原因之一。
When you're stressed out, your body kicks into high gear and expends all of its energy on dealing with whatever it is you're so stressed out about.
