You are not just tired. Something is happening to you, and it has a name.
The images from a difficult visit that stayed with you on the drive home. The dread that began settling in on Sunday evenings. The exhaustion that sleep did not fix. The numbness you told yourself was just part of the job. These are not signs of weakness. They are signs of compassion fatigue, one of the most common and least addressed realities in the helping professions.
In What the Work Does to the Worker, Cliffard Mayo names what the system rarely does: that caring deeply for people in crisis, across years of demanding and under-resourced work, changes you. It accumulates. It lives in the body. It shows up in the stories that follow you home and the silence you carry alone because you do not know who would understand.
This book does not ask you to stop caring. It asks you to understand what caring costs, so that you can build the practices, the support, and the self-awareness that allow you to keep giving without giving yourself away. You deserve the same compassion you offer everyone else.
