    Only answer is: Take it easier. Burnout is no joke. If you’re already burnt out, you might need months or more to relax enough to get some passion back.

      Hm. I have one vacation day left after being sick. Won’t get more until next week. Work 10 hour days 4 days a week and the too exhausted to relax most of the remaining 3.

      What if… Hear me out… What if I were to be, idk, run over by a bus and hospitalized for a month? /s

        He isn’t dismissing how difficult your situation is. He is just saying the only solution to burnout is to stop doing the thing that is burning you out, i.e. take it easier. Whether or not that is within your power is a different story.

        I understand the difficulty, but let’s put it this way. If you truly are moving towards burnout, either you’ll figure out a way to take it easier or eventually your own brain will make you.
