Modern burnout looks like exhaustion, but it does not behave like exhaustion. Sleep does not fix it. Vacation produces brief relief and rapid relapse. KTM has had a precise name for this state for nearly two thousand years — and it is not a generic fatigue diagnosis. It is a specific failure of the organ classical theory calls “the general”: the liver. Understanding the liver as general — 간주모려 (肝主謀慮) — is one of the more useful clinical frameworks for modern burnout that KTM offers.
