From people who came through it
โFor whoever is where I was: I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember signed off for six weeks like it was yesterday. I laugh properly again.โ
leah_west ยท been through burnoutโIf 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. Some days now I forget to be sad. I treat job hunting like a job now, nine till three, then I stop. Go slowly.โ
Writer in London 36 ยท been through burnoutโA note for the next person. I was in the same place in 2022. It was could not get out of the car in the parking lot and I couldn't see past it. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.โ
finch_october96 ยท been through burnoutโI know you're just starting burnout and it feels like you're drowning. I've been there. The sunday dread on a saturday, the crying in the toilets, the forgetting words. It's scary. But you're not alone. Talk to someone. I started with my GP and then a therapist. It helped. And be kind to yourself. You can't pour from an empty cup. Take a break if you can. Even a small one.โ
