Burnout isn’t a sign of failure — it’s your body and mind’s way of asking for help.

Burnout is a state of emotional, mental and/or physical exhaustion. It can feel overwhelming and make everyday tasks seem impossible.

For s*x workers, burnout might show up as irritability towards clients, feeling disconnected or disinterested in work, or struggling to balance personal life with work demands.

Understanding what contributes to burnout may help you recognise what you're experiencing and find ways to manage it.

For you, it may be caused by stressors such as time wasters, clients pushing your boundaries, emotional labour, irregular hours, and isolation, among other things.

Stigma can also contribute to burnout, especially if you are also navigating other forms of oppression such as racism, s*xism, or transphobia.

Prioritising self care and healthy routines, maintaining boundaries, trying different ways to work, and becoming involved in the sw community can help with burnout.

You can always contact Respect Inc to talk to a peer educator if you are feeling burnt out and would like some support.

Mpox usually begins with flu-like symptoms and swelling of the lymph nodes, followed by a widespread rash on the face and body. While Mpox is usually self-limited and resolves within 2 to 4 weeks, severe cases can occur.

Transmission of Mpox occurs through skin-to-skin contact with blisters, sores, scabs, or bodily fluids from someone with the virus.

S*x workers are eligible for free Mpox vaccines.

You can contact Respect Inc to find a vaccination clinic that is likely to be s*x worker-friendly.

Additional information about the Mpox vaccine can be found on the Australian Government Department of Health website.
