From people who came through it
โTo whoever needs this: I was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was crying in the work toilets. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.โ

It feels like you have no choice, but you do. The first step is to tell someone. For me, it was my GP. I got signed off. That was the beginning. It is not easy, and it takes time, but you can get through it. You're not on your own, even if it feels like it. Take it from me, a night guard who now sleeps better.โ
Marloes K. ยท been through burnoutโNot sure if this makes sense. If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Write everything down at work. Dates, times, what was said. Go slowly.โ
