Ask HN: How are you getting through (and back from) burning out?
Ask HN: How are you getting through (and back from) burning out?
Obviously, my tendency is to do what it is I did that got me here in a sense. I plan and I scheme. Maybe I should just be in the couch binge-watching Netflix, or double-down on physical exercise with the extra time on hand (not that I wasn't active before). I'm really struggling to figure out what it is that I should be doing now to get back to wellness and then stay there so I was hoping it would help to read other people's experience. Briefly, high-performance knowledge worker that places a lot of self-worth in the quality of his work and that subsequently spiraled as a work performance degraded as burn out symptoms started to set in that was caused by issues and events on multiple frontiers in life simultaneously. Some of those stressors remain, and are Intrinsic moreso than extrinsic and removing them doesn't really have a tangible timeline.
