PSA: until you've experienced burnout, you are likely to underestimate how long it takes to recover. It's not a couple of months, it's 6-18 months for partial recovery, and maybe 3 years for full recovery (all depending on how bad it gets). The company burning you out will almost never support your recovery, mostly they'll drop you when you stop being productive.

Nobody in business cares about your health but you, so be your own advocate, or suffer the consequences.

@dznz
when 2020 happened it was the last straw for my burnout, and it was the second time in my life hitting that wall and having to spend time recovering. the 3 years estimate is about right ๐Ÿ˜ž
@nomi you have my utmost sympathy, itโ€™s incredibly tough and even after three years there are still scars, eh.
