mindout is a community based platform specially designed to help you on your journey to overcome any level of mental health difficulty, specially related to the Burnout Syndrome.

mindout works in 3 parallel ways: 1. A community where you can share your experience and absorb others’, relating your individual journeys with an understanding growing community of mental health advocates, patients and professionals. 2. Through the Mindout Burnout Score, you get an objective sense of where your mental health’s state is and a score is attributed. 3. Your score originates your journey to a better you. With mindout guiding all the way, you can make this specially designed journey yourself or it can be oriented by certified professionals, with appointments being facilitated in Mindout’s Oriented Journey Platform.

What is the Mindout Burnout Score?

The Mindout Burnout Score (MBS) is the way to rate your level of Burnout. After you answer a 35-question quick quiz, you’ll get a score ranging from 1 to 6, from healthy to severely burnt out, respectively. Even though professional counseling is advised in all stages of life and with all levels of mental health, we created a journey that you can work with if you are in the 1 to 4 range. If your score is 5 to 6, professional help is highly recommended.

Does this count as treatment?

The mindout process is designed by certified professionals, and we work to bring the best experience to all our users. However, it does not count as treatment. For that, you need the counseling and guidance of a certified mental health professional.
