You cancelled again. Not because you don't care about people — because something about that specific situation costs more than you had left. But it's hard to explain that when you don't have the words for what's actually happening.
Social exhaustion isn't one thing. It's eight. The Social Load Profile maps the distinct types of social demand that drain capacity — from the effort of initiating contact and masking in professional settings, to the cognitive overhead of reciprocity tracking, conflict avoidance, and decoding unspoken expectations. Each domain has its own cost. And most people are paying several at once without realizing it.
Rate each domain, shade your load map, and read the pattern. High-drain types point to where accommodations are needed most. Lower-drain types are your social safe zones — the contexts that cost relatively little and can actually restore you. The action plan helps you name what's happening, communicate it to the people in your life, and make deliberate choices about where your social energy goes.
Designed for: Mapping social capacity in therapy or coaching, and clinicians building psychoeducation around social energy and accommodation planning.
