Exposure to institutional demands, interpersonal tensions, and emotional exhaustion can lead to burnout, affecting their performance, well\u2010being, and professional identity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A descriptive qualitative study was employed. Twenty nursing interns who had experienced symptoms of burnout were recruited from three tertiary hospitals in western China. All participants were final\u2010year students in a registered nurse training program. Semistructured interviews were conducted, and data were analyzed using Braun and Clarke\u2019s six\u2010phase thematic approach.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Four themes were developed through thematic analysis: (1) Violence under the system\u2014interns experienced both explicit oppression (e.g., excessive workloads, rigid rules, and lack of voice) and implicit oppression (e.g., unpaid tasks, lack of respect, and normalized exploitation); (2) torn between idealism and reality\u2014participants described idealized career expectations clashing with clinical realities, interpersonal conflicts, and uncertainty about professional values; (3) depletion of self\u2010resources\u2014burnout manifested as physical exhaustion, emotional volatility, and cumulative effects such as emotional numbness and disengagement; and (4) finding their own path\u2014interns coped through personal recharge strategies, self\u2010disclosure, quiet resistance, letting go of ambitious career goals, and, in some cases, resignation. These themes highlight the progressive, multidimensional nature of burnout and reveal both risks to interns\u2019 well\u2010being and opportunities for targeted managerial interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Burnout among nursing interns is a dynamic and multifaceted process rooted in structural, emotional, and cognitive tensions.

Interventions should include optimizing task allocation, building respectful mentorship systems, and providing emotional support services.
