The problem of emotional burnout is becoming increasingly important due to the increase in socio-economic and political challenges of our time. An analysis of the literature on the clinical and social aspects of professional burnout and the mechanisms developed to overcome this problem have been conducted. Clinical symptoms include physical, psychopathological and social. Psychopathological symptoms are most often manifested in emotional, behavioral and cognitive, physical — in various somato-vegetative symptoms, social are considered through the problems of medical workers, the impact on patients and the healthcare industry as a whole. A promising direction for further research may be the analysis of emotional burnout of specialists in the field of mental ill-health in the harsh conditions of war. It is necessary to continue research into the positive and negative effects of professional activity and other circumstances on the emotional state of specialists and to identify risk and anti-risk factors of professional burnout from the point of view of distinguishing between fruitful and inspired work, as an adaptive resource in complex macro-social conditions, and excessive immersion and overload, as a potential factor that can cause psychological, emotional and physical problems and develop mechanisms for overcoming them at the organizational, interpersonal and individual levels.
