#burnout

11 posts11 participants1 post today

I don’t know if it’s my age or just the general shitty state of the world around me, but I’ve been struggling to get enough rest these days to function optimally. The amounts of work that I would normally find OK (or even pleasant) has shrunk down significantly. I need more rest, more distraction, more entertainment to get through the day.

I think a lot of it comes down to stress. I’m stressed more and longer each day than I used to be. And dealing with stress means getting away from the routine and having some do-nothing downtime. And the more stress I get, the more intentional downtime I need.

Unbeknownst to me, I think I’ve allowed my “max stress” alarm level to be set at higher and higher levels over time. I need to reset that index back downward for my health.

I'm struggling in the comfortable but bone weary state I think might be healing, but it's hard to relax into, because survival. 🤷‍♀️

I continue to yearn for something like long covid recovery homes.

I think things would shift for a lot of people if they could just get a chance to rest deeply and be well nourished for a few months in a row.

Gerade zurück von einem inspirierenden #Bildungsurlaub: "Boost your #Resilience at #Work" von let's flow. Theorie, Austausch und #Bewegung kombiniert mit einer starken Gruppendynamik. 🥾❄️ #Schneeschuhwandern war der Knaller! Unterkunft im #Bio Hotel Pointner in Reith bei #Kitzbühel war top – #Vegetarisch und #Vegan freundlich! 🌱 Planungstipp: Vorher anreisen und länger bleiben.

Most of today's big tasks of the fairly enjoyable type (updating a few days of trackers & diary entries & drawing up next month's pages) have not happened. Just nothing in the tank so instead of doing at least one before supper I'm rewarding my failure today / boosting my morale for tomorrow with a movie & maybe some snacks.

I made the mistake of thinking I'd found some spoons but doing the washing up, reading, mastodoning & The Phone Call, cleaned me out.

Level 0 isn't the "first backrooms level" or "the start of the backrooms" it is just the most common place where people first *notice* they are in the backrooms.

Before you go there for good you have visited these places many many times. That's why so many of them are familiar.

Eventually, if you spend enough time in-between places you will get pulled back. You will be bound. #backrooms #burnout #nonsense

Flibble, flabble.

No idea where that came from or what it means. Though, I'm wondering if that's the sound of my spoon tank & dice chamber when they're both completely empty 🤔.

Maybe I should send an SOS?

Great now I've given myself an earworm 🤦, where is @scream when you need them?

Thanks Sting & your 'sending out an SOS'.
