burn out (someone)

to stop being effective because of too much work or stress.

Most of these people will burn out within 10 years and be replaced by younger employees who don't mind working nights, weekends, and holidays.

This work burns me out so much that by the end of the day I can't even decide what I want to eat for dinner.
