The Everyday Burnout Protocol
When "just tired" has been the answer for six months, it isn't the answer anymore. A full workup, a doctor who takes the time to look at what's actually driving it, and a 12-month plan to get your energy and resilience back.
- Full bloods including thyroid, iron, and nutritional markers
- Structured review of sleep, stress, work and recovery
- 12-month protocol with reassessments built in
If this is you
- Tired all the time
- Losing focus
- Can't switch off
- Nothing feels like recovery
- Constantly overwhelmed
- Broken sleep
What we look at:
Full metabolic and nutritional panel
- Thyroid function, iron studies, vitamin D, B12 and folate - the things most commonly missed when fatigue gets labelled as stress
- Full blood count, liver, kidney and inflammatory markers
- Additional markers where your history indicates — cortisol, glucose regulation, hormone panel
Sleep, stress and recovery review
- A structured look at how you're sleeping, what your recovery actually looks like, and what your day is asking of you
- Deep dive into your alcohol and caffeine habits, training load, screen time, and working hours
- Documented properly. Not summarised into "stressed."
A real explanation, not a diagnosis
- We don't hand out "burnout" as a label. We work out what's actually driving how you feel
- If the answer is medical, thyroid, iron, sleep disorder, something else, we treat it
- If it's not medical, we build the recovery plan with you and refer to psychology where appropriate
Testing is easy
01
Complete your Fig baseline
A short health summary and intake. Free, and it stays on file.
A Fig nurse follows up to talk you through what your protocol
includes.02
Book a video or phone consult with your doctor
Go through your results and your history with a GP who has
read both.
03Build a 12 month plan with your doctor
Retests already scheduled, so nothing gets missed
Six months of "have you tried a holiday?" hasn't worked.
A proper workup will tell you whether what you're feeling is medical, structural, or both — and give you a plan either way.

What is Fig?
Fig is an Australian digital health clinic bringing GP-led care, a dedicated care team and your care plan together in one connected experience.
Where is Fig available?
Fig is available to patients located in all Australian states and territories: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory. Fig is not available outside Australia. You must have an Australian residential address and be located in Australia at the time of your consultation, and we can only deliver medication to Australian addresses.
Who is it for?
Adults who want a doctor-led weight or health protocol with ongoing monitoring rather than a one-off consult. Eligibility is confirmed by a GP after your health check.
Do I need to already have a prescription or a GP?
No. You do not need an existing prescription or a regular GP. Your Fig doctor reviews your health check and decides what is appropriate for you.
How is this different from other weight-loss options?
Care does not stop at the prescription. You keep the same doctor, a care team checking in, and monitoring that continues for as long as you are on the protocol.
