I've been feeling mentally drained recently... Life has been intense and fast, leaving almost no time to breathe, let alone process how I have been feeling.
For a long time, I knew I was feeling exhausted, but I didn't allow myself the space or permission to take a step back. It slowly started affecting how I viewed everything, life, work, even small day-to-day moments.
Thankfully, I finally had a moment to recharge a bit with a full week of nothing, and then a week of being in California with the people that inspire me the most, and it was exactly what I needed.
What I've realized is the importance of recognizing and vocalizing burnout. Admitting it, even quietly to myself, was the first step toward feeling better.
Now, I'm genuinely refreshed. I'm not dreading tasks or feeling constantly tired, and it's a relief.
If you're feeling mentally exhausted right now, please acknowledge it. Say it out loud, even just to yourself. Take a break when your body tells you it's necessary, it's worth it. 3 replies
