I think I've been masking the fact that I've been burnt out for a few weeks now, I'm aware of it, especially since being medicated and know why I'm burnt out.
I know what I need to do, but its so hard to just take a break and detach, I don't feel miserable/depressed, I just feel mentally exhausted and feel like I just need to get out and unwind or something.
I used to self medicate in the past, and a lot of it had to do with that mental exhaustion feeling towards the end of the day after work, I still feel that way but since being on meds I'm able to better control it
I like the meds I'm on, I've only ever tried Concerta and Ritalin for my ADHD, and there's been a great improvement overall, my doctor has suggested potentially trialing either Vyvanse or Adderall, but I have health/med anxiety and hate change, even though I do feel like my meds are contributing to burnout, but thats mainly because I can actually hold my attention longer than an infant and get stuff/projects done at work on time
If anyone has any pro tips on how to deal with burnout, would be much appreciated!
