You're pictures are lovely.
I was burned out on the sofa re-watching some favourites and chatting on here about the unfairness of life.
I am a miserable, summer-hating goth.
I love them because I can buy food even when I'm feeling socially burned out. I remember 15-20 years ago when I'd go without food because I couldn't face an interaction.
Starbuck In the end I got fibromyalgia /cfs and had to stop work altogether. I hope your situation doesn't become like that and you can find a way not to burn out.
I used to be quite a heavy masker until I burned out... it led to low self-esteem and identity confusion. I wish we didn't have to do it. Although I do it automatically out of fear.
Oh god I so relate to this, "feeling important not stressed" - till I burn out and have to sit with headphones in a darkened room for a few days forgetting to eat or sleep! I'm also experimenting with self-care strategies cos sick of burning out constantly…
I feel bad when it's sunny outside but I'm burned out and tired so I can't go out to enjoy it. since it's rarely sunny, when it finally comes there's the expectation and pressure to go out and enjoy it.
thank you Ian. I'm burned out right now but I want to say I agree 99% with what you say! I'll post further when I can, and thanks for the truth bomb my friend!
Thank you! Yes 3 days in a row is hard, I can usually only manage too. Feeling very burned out after this week. Hope you are getting through your job ok,what do you do?
Is masking asking too much,And is it best to say less,Or say more and bore,Its not great to grate.Do I dare to share,Or say little, be belittled.Will I turn out well or burn out?
