1. You feel disconnected from everything 2. You used to be motivated 3. You used to be passionate 4. You've become moody and irritable 5. You've neglected your self care 6. These changes happened gradually
@olafpenner Sorry to hear that. I went trough a similar situation and i know how hard it can be to overcome that. What helped me was therapy. Talking with someone outside your circle can help you to heal. I m wishing you all the best on your journey
Feeling disconnected from everything is in my opinion one of the worst feelings in the world.. And the worst part which is from my personal experience is that you want to "connect" but it feels like it's impossible..
I don’t know. When I experience it there is something nice about it. I think it’s because it felt like I didn’t actually have to deal with the problems; like it was just a dream. But if I want things to stop feeling like a dream then I can’t and it can somewhat spoil the good things.
I thought I was lazy my entire life, but then I started SSRIs and turns out I just spent most of my life needing 15 minutes to recover from every small effort. Didn't even realise I was hopelessly stressed out because I'd never felt anything different
I feel the same but it’s also extremely difficult for me to take short breaks and there just isn’t enough time to take a 1-2 hour break after everything.
I tried explaining this to my family, but as expected from a Hispanic family they’re ignorant to what I am trying to convey to them. They speak as tho they know everything and they tell me nah you just lazy. When I clearly remember being able to do everything with ease, but now it’s a mental challenge for me to simply get myself up and clean my room or take a shower. I try to push myself in different ways and for them to tell me hurry up and bring me their problems stresses me out completely. It’s nice to see a video where I can honestly relate to. Thank you Edit: Thank you all for your kind words and experience. I guess no matter what race you are we all have to deal with the same situation. I pray we can all find the peace we need to get through it. You are all beautiful and wonderful people. Love you guys ❤️
Try an Irish family or a Sicilian family. I am mixed of both. Totally ignorant and opinionated and leaning on me inappropriately and I can't enjoy my own life or have my own life. This is Slavery. And up to today I have allowed it. No is a complete sentence.
After the first burnout vs laziness clip, i talked to my psychologist about. She told me that i was indeed going threw burnout. Getting the mail, paying bills, a little yardwork, cleaning the litterbox and feeding myself and the 2 cats is about all i can handle at this point. Having lost all family during this "crisis" and sprinkle a little cOvId on top and o boy...thanks for your content BTW
Hi........hope you got the help that you needed, how are you doing now ? I can totally relate.......my dog is my life and I can just about look after him, let alone myself ! Take care X
I feel the same way, also just getting the mail, paying bills (no yardwork) and sometimes I don't feel like doing the litterbox or putting fresh water in the dish, but if I miss a day, I make it up the next day. I'd rather just stay in bed for the most part.
@@idotgotitme3280 Im sorry but can totally relate. I wish you well fellow human. With the state of the world it definitely hard to see a positive outcome. Even one more simple task a day will help. I promise.
I needed this badly. As an person on the spectrum who has aspired to being a singer-songwriter and a multimedia artists, I find myself putting everything to the side for things that only ever tires me out and leaves me with little room for better myself. These days, everything I used to love doing and find solace in are stuff I no longer care for as much as I used to. I wish I had that motivation back.
Same here. It'll take time but hopefully you will find the change that can reignite that thing you cared about. I'm trying to change something as well.
5 Signs It's Burnout, Not Laziness 0:54 - You feel disconnected from everything 1:36 - You used to be motivated 2:02 - You used to be passionate 2:34 - You become moody and irritable 3:03 - You neglected your self care 3:33 - These changes happened gradually Have a nice day guys❤️
Same thing mate. If there's anything that bothers you,you can talk about it if you feel comfortable. In that case,I'm here for you. Have a nice day/night [This is referred to anyone who'd like to talk even if i don't have the best advice it's a pleasure to listen to y'all:)]
@@bc8724 I don't know if your reply was to my comment or the first comments. But here we go: I was studying for about 2years(10or more hours a day)for chemistry Olympiad that I almost lost myself I couldn't spend time for the things I liked I couldn't read my favorite books couldn't watch the series I was interested in and...I changed to a studying machine and it was ok at least I was at a good point there was a good chance for me to get accepted as 40 selected students for the 3rd step and fighting for the gold medals(if you can get accepted on 2nd step at least you're gonna get bronze) we assumed the exam will be held 60 days later. But suddenly they announced we'll have the exam will be held for 10 days later(a total disorganization)!! And you know it's just not enough time for reviewing the 2 years studies. For me that I didn't review little by little it was a disaster and I couldn't make it. And now I have to study hard for the University entrance exam that is really hard too.I don't have the confidence anymore
@@mabe1272 don’t worry much, there are no compulsions on you, set out free from races & illusions around you, keep going, give your ‘self’ some time. Everything will be ok no matter what. I believe ‘your day’ will definitely come. Now you have to start believing....you may consider(if you believe) that these words are from god(the creator), you & I are just his agents. Good luck😊💜👍🙏✨✌🏻
Burnout also affects one's judgement skills. When engaged in activities, a person who is burned out will make poor decisions because of the inability to rationally think through the potential consequences. I say this, because that was when I realized i was burned out was when I started doing things that i wouldn't have done before at work. I was making poor decisions. I still feel some of the after effects of the burnout, but it has taken a few years to return to a higher state of non depression/burnout. I still have trouble motivating myself to do things that I enjoy. But I am at least far less irritable and moody.
Yes I’ve realized this too I tried to start a couple fights at school just to get suspended/expelled at school cause I was so burnt out from school. I completely disregarded the consequences and told myself whatever I got into it would be better than this (which was false). Luckily none of them escalated but it just shows how burnout can mess with you.
I saw him burying the guitar and the mic and I just started crying. Tears are flowing now as I type. So many passions and so many let downs… thank you for the realization.
I graduated college 2 years ago with a degree in Animation. But since then I've barely made a thing. Every time I look at my tablet, I just don't want to turn it on. There were just so many projects due all the time, I stayed up so late for most of them. My last year was probably the most stressful of all. I took more classes, I was having roommate issues, friend issues, and I was just so god damn tired. When I went back home it felt like I could take a break, but now it just feels like I may never get my passion to create back. I've applied for jobs thinking that maybe it would get me excited again, but no, I can't even make myself do that anymore. I try to force myself to update my portfolio, but the tab just stays open while I stare at it. It feels like I don't want anything to do with art ever again, but that's not true, I want my passion to come back. At the moment I'm working a full time job doing other things and I like it, so I'm wondering if maybe I was just someone never meant to pursue their hobby as a career.
I feel the same. I just graduated in graphic design and after 4+ years creating stuff (class projects and at the same time personal projects), driving 200km a day and sleeping like shit I feel like I can't work for an hour straight even if I have no pressure to do so. Am I lazy or do I just feel exhausted and burned out? My passion to do things is still there but it's hard for me to do things like I used to do in the past
If you are not sure why you lost your passion for art and animation, maybe seeing a therapist can help you. I had something eating away at me that I couldn’t nail down seven years ago, and finding a good therapist really helped me resolve issues that were bothering me that I couldn’t quite identify. Also, from my experience a new job will not reignite passion in something I’ve lost interest in. It just had me going through the motions to try and get by. I was still miserable.
I was really into drawing and painting for years and years until I just... stopped. I didn't care for it anymore. I felt like I owed it to myself to keep making stuff. I'm good at it. People like it. But I dont. I'm in college rn for cinema studies production, I want to be around like minded people more than I care about the craft though I do want to make cool stuff. But recently I started sketching again. Not with eny expectation or hope. Just to have something to do with my hands. I'm starting to enjoy the process again. My friend tells me (she's a graphic designer) that it's good to have one art you do just for yourself. Creating can fill your life, but it shouldn't nessisarily define it. If you want the passion to come back maybe don't force it? Maybe find something cool you'd be curious to see animated then just make it for yourself? It doesn't have to be your career. You can start small.
In my case I was so inclined to art side but had to choose technical side regardless because in india parents wants their child to either be a doctor or engineer, I won't say they are in the wrong as salary is more in these fields, but after completing my studies and getting a job in a good company at that, I feel lost, nothing inspires me and my thoughts seems clouded, even had to leave my job but still I'm not able to motivate myself, don't know what is it that would help, just hoping that things get better for me 💛
Honestly this is what I needed to finally understand my own life has suddenly spiraled. Maybe now that I have a clearer understanding of what lead me here can finally help me start to improve
If I were to tell anyone I’m burnt out, they would say, “No, you’re just being lazy.” And if I continued to push the point, including credible psychological evidence, I would simply be told to “get over it”. 😒
My goodness. This nailed everything about me when I do anything involving school. I'm not even an adult, and I'm (apparently) experiencing burnout... Thanks.
I got my associates degree in computer drafting and design almost a decade ago and it feels like yesterday now I'm going for my bachelor's in computer science I also code on my own and watch RU-vid tutorials on computer programming.
I feel many of us are going through burnout from dealing with past year and half. I've had to find new self care activities that even for moment helped lift my mood...walking in nature with phone turned off, listen to upbeat and empowering music, ect. As for things I used to enjoy...I would do a small amount of the activity...for first 5 minutes...yes hated it, but when I continued I started to feel a small amount of that joy when I did those things...so I do them 3X a week...even for 10 minutes. You're not alone, sending lots of hugs.❤😁
Hey, you. whoever’s reading this, this is your sign. everything’s gonna be okay. you did not come this far to give up. I believe in you ❤️ Stay connected 😀😘😍😆
Omg this just made everything make sense. I am actually trying everything to NOT seem lazy because I could just sit there every single day... And stare at the wall. I grew up in a narcissistic household, my childhood was without proper pauses, school, even training, then music school was my day-to-day life. It got only worse by getting a sponsorship to study music at only 14. And my health got bad from then, I also developed an eating disorder. And I have nothing from all this hard work because I got chronically ill afterwards. I don't know what to do, no matter what I start, it goes bad, bosses take advantage of me and so on. I just want to work properly in a nice office, use my skills for a nice company and have a normal life... But I seem lazy to others because I can't keep a job for a long time, but without doing anything wrong. Bad luck, I don't know. It's eating me up from inside. The only thing I have is that I take care of my niece and nephew (in law, not married yet but I call them so) they lost their dad and their mom, my boyfriends sister, lost sight of her priorities and they need to have a good basis for building their childhood memories, so we took them. My boyfriend has a good job, no worries, so we can provide them with everything they need and more. They're being cherished and loved, oh its so good to see kids just being kids🥺❤️ It's just that I can't do anything regarding jobs yet but I just want to... I hope for everyone that they don't have to go through any of this. From the bottom of my heart, all the best to all of you 🙌🍀❤️🥺
My boyfriend is going through this sadly and the best thing I do is send out encouragement continuously and give him space. He's so withdrawn we rarely talk and I hate feeling helpless because he won't let me in he just gets more withdrawn whenever I try to help. It's sad 😢 but I keep praying for him and hoping he recovers. ❤😌
I'm someone who suffered from chronical burnout and I didn't have any friends or family who were there for me when I really needed someone to talk to. I can say that if I was your bf, I would be very happy to know that there is someone around me who cares as genuinly for their loved one as you do. :) Just letting them know that you're there for them if they need you is very helpful already and the best you can do. I'm sure by giving them their time and space they'll eventually recover and go back to being their old self. I wish you two the best for your future. :)
It took me 6 hours to complete 5 questions of a college assignment, that has never gotten this bad before. I thought i was being lazy, but then i remembered i worked nearly 17 hours between early afternoon and late morning. I only took a 2 hour nap after it because i didn't feel like sleeping and didn't get much sleep that night (insomnia sucks). Maybe this isn't burnout, and maybe I was lazy, idk. What do yall think? I'd like to hear your thoughts
If you worked 17 hours straight, I’m inclined to think it’s not due to laziness. Lack of sleep can make it hard to focus and concentrate on some tasks, or it could be another reason.
Sounds like my pattern of enthuse, overwork and exertion exhaustion. They say ADHD has a similar pattern or Bipolar type two. I'm currently getting checked for both. However I believe now that it's an over blown Ego on my part like I am trying to force myself never to die or be irrelevant that I constantly have to be in motion or my greatest fear will be true, that I am a Nothing a Loser. Less than dirt. I play God with overwork to deny that fear, when my fear is based on a lie. I am Precious as I am even if I never do another cottonpicking thing in life! Maybe that is what was meant by See the Lilies of the field, they neither spin nor do they toil."
It's definitely Burnout... & if you don't listen now by being kinder to yourself, by putting your needs and more of your wants higher on your priority list, you get to enjoy more shitty symptoms that gradually consume your Life... Please take care of yourself as you would a dear Loved one. Good Luck, Fellow Traveler.
@@juliecipolla6732 The reality is that for there to be the few odd examples of human EXCELLENCE, the huge greater majority of the rest of us are probably only going to achieve varying degrees of "average" or there about. It doesn't make us irrelevant. It doesn't make us losers. I only bother myself with working to earn enough money to do what I WANT TO DO with it. I earn my freedom. I own a motorcycle (not even on payments. I OWN it.) AND Gas is still cheap for me when I get 60-ish miles to every gallon, even when I'm getting acceleration comparable to a Porsche, and I ride like I stole the damn thing! If I take to a road trip, I shut off the cell phone and stuff it into a pocket. I bought a GPS specifically NOT to have an app' that would let bosses or family know I could've picked up... They go directly to voicemail and I'll get back with them when I DECIDE I have the time. If I run out of money on a trip, I can find a supplement job (waiting, cooking, washing dishes, or a thousand other menial labor tasks) to gather some gas money together and then be on my way again... Lots of people have SNEERED down their noses at me. I'm "just" a whatever... JUST a wrench jockey. JUST a cook. JUST an ass who thinks he can rule the world on a damn motorcycle... Maybe... Maybe I'm also FREE. I GET to do whatever I want... pretty much whenever I want. Okay, so there are things that just now I can't afford... Say... riding over to a certain gun-range in Kentucky and renting a machine-gun to play (because it's closest for such things)... BUT that's still NOT "I can't" or a "NO"... It's a "Not right now"... I'll get back there again. (yep, been there before. LOVED playing with the M2) Relax your own expectations for yourself. I know... I KNOW... "Easier said than done." A LOT of life is about "figuring yourself out". You can't go living someone else's fantasies or letting parents, grandparents, or other family/friends live vicariously through what's clearly making YOU miserable. When I'm busy being "just a wrench pusher" I remind the drivers (who are most notorious for the view) that without me pushing my wrenches, they don't have running vehicles to drive. Without running vehicles to drive, a driver is useless... a complete waste. They usually check the attitude... and the saucy language. In any case, your most difficult task is to figure out who YOU are and what EXACTLY you want. Find that out and go for it. Anything else is irrelevant. YOU are never irrelevant to yourself, and nobody else's point of view needs matter unless YOU EXPLICITLY decide it should matter... OR (TL/DR) more simply... The ability to choose a life for ourselves is really the only REAL FREEDOM any of us really has. It's worth taking the fullest advantage of and celebrating with EVERY possible opportunity. CHERISH that!!! ;o)
The work I’ve been doing that should take me about 30 minutes and used to take me about 25-35 minutes now takes me 3 hours to do.I also get really concerned about my work but at the same time,I ignore my work for some reason
I can't believe this popped up, I have been like this for 2 & 1/2 years.....last night I was thinking that of how I've been soooo lazy for that period.....& I know that this sounds gross but I didn't wash my hair for nearly 2 months, just the thought of washing my hair and having a shower would just exhaust me.....thank you
I've been feeling burnouts for awhile, and I'm trying to get up and do stuff, but feel burnt out for dealing with a break up. But, I know it takes time to get through break ups.
I am so glad that I have found something i can relate to. I have an Indian family and I work my butt off all the time, but my parents still have a lot to say about me being "lazy" or "unproductive". Honestly, I am truly happy that I found this, but there isn't any point in showing it to them because they think they know everything.
I'm in love with the animation and the voice. I hope that you can release more videos 'cause someone on this planet might need them, oh, and stay safe during the pandemic guys!!!
I'm struggling with anxiety, but also my energy level has never been so low. Doctors have different opinions on it, my psychologist says it's because I'm facing my fears, and that's exhausting. Another doctor says it has nothing to do with anxiety. So now my psychologist said I have to think about further treatment, where they will look if something else is wrong with me
Do you have bursts of a excessive nervous energy here and there but after a panic attack you feel completely drained? That's what kept happening to me. You'll get through this. The more you face your fears the easier it becomes. Be patient with yourself it takes time to heal.
@@lindseycassella3015 I think that's what's wrong. I'm facing my fears almost every day, bc I work in a place with a lot of people. (previously it wasn't a problem, I got anxiety later, due to an traumatic event). I notice being with nature helps me find my inner peace. Like, going to the forest, the sea etc
I used to be very driven when I was younger, but ever since I got a job, I've been burnt out. It's good that I identified it, but I don't have enough money for a mental professional, and nothing I've done to try to change it has worked. I've cleaned my room so many times just to have it become just as messy the same day. I don't know how to change myself back, and it sucks.
Not sure who needs to hear this, but if things are rough for you right now, hang in there. This storm will pass. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Baby steps, my dear. As long as you don’t quit, you will reach the summit. Remember, baby steps are all it takes. Take a brief moment to rest, refuel, and come back stronger. You can do this. And when you reach the top, you’ll be glad you didn’t stop. Slowly, but surely, you’ll get there. Don’t give up. You can do this. ❤️
I definitely had this for 2 years, if not longer on and off. Art is my life and passion, but I couldn't draw anything- even if I was able to start, for about 2 years straight. Although I had a lot of time to myself as I had no school and could've used it, I felt empty, unmotivated and tired. I'm slightly better since the end of 2020-to now. But I can still feel it, thank you for this video
Tysm for this video at this time of night! It's been a while since I seen these and this one caught my eye. I always wondered if I was lazy or just really tired. Since I'm in 7th grade now, I'm starting to think I'm really am just tired. Once again, thank you and have a good night's rest! 😊🙏
It's never laziness because laziness doesn't exist. It's a term used by people who don't want to bother with finding out why someone acts the way that they do.
I just came to the realisation I am experiencing burnout after watching this video. I recently lost 2 of my loved ones due to covid and ever since then my whole life is the complete opposite of how I was before. I have no interest in any sorts of things including living. Was more enthusiastic before and now I am a mess. I am not able to focus on my job, even reading a mail is making me irritable and anxious. I gave up on almost everything. Unconsciously I knew inside I am not being lazy. I just knew..but I couldn't explain what it was. I never knew this term 'burnout' even existed until now. I don't even know how to get back to myself and somewhere deep inside I don't even wish to. I just hope I will have the strength to atleast to do my job right. That's all the strength I need for now and nothing else.
I love these videos: 1. Information 2. Calming and soothing voice and sound effects 3. The art is simple cute and meaningful 4. Has Dream SMP drawings that are subtle yet nice to look at each photo
Wow this explains everything. I definitely feel like I may be experiencing burnout, because lately, I have just felt all wrong. Like I don’t really know myself anymore, and this video explained all of it for me
I can totally relate to this one, specifically number 2 and 4. Last year, the pandemic allowed me to work on my hobbies. This year, I felt like everything was a chore. I love cooking but I also have to clean up for myself. But cooking took so much time, I was working on weekdays and cooking most of the weekends and it felt exhausting to the point that I stopped altogether. It also affected my diet coz I ended up getting deliveries instead, which mostly comprised of fast food.
I think my burntout was caused by me trying to please my family so bad because I was super scared of abandonment. I used to love certain things and now I just can’t do them anymore, It’s always “You got a B? What a shame. Try to push yourself harder like my mom did to me.. I wanted to learn you don’t. You’re just like your father” and never “You did you best!”.
I always find myself giving a "like" to your mental illness v. laziness videos. My persistent sadness and lack of drive to do anything at all couldn't be explained clearer.
Some months ago I almost had a burnout (or went to at least 3 of these mentioned stages. Going though a difficult time after I first realized it, didn't really help and added emotional burdens. The worst thing was that I lost interest in what I had been passionate about before and what I always used as an outlet to relief stress. Thankfully now since around two months I'm almost back to normal. It might sound crazy that out of all times I'm trying to pursue one of my biggest dreams now but I also feel it will help me to grow and improve in many areas. What really helped me as usual was my belief but I also have amazing friends who care deeply about me even if they don't understand what I've been through (to be fair I think it's never easy if you don't face something yourself). Thank you for the video
I feel most of these because I graduated from school recently and that was the only time I could’ve left my house. Now I’m bored and desperately looking for something to do
I've been burnt out for years and it's extremely frustrating. I didn't get a job after post secondary (I actually lost it lol), and being in the creative industry make its even harder. You don't succeed without doing copious amounts of personal work that requires a lot of self motivation. Went from trying to be optimistic(when actually being extremely pessimistic), only for myself to crash and burn, my depression get the worst it has ever been, and trying to find ways to earn money without sinking deeper in my depression. it suuuccckkkkkkkkssssss
Hii i’m just wondering. What’s the difference between Depression, burn out or laziness. I’ve been laying on my bed weeks already and i just couldn’t snap out of it. I just thought that i was just being lazy and careless but i wasn’t so sure. Can someone please help me.
Depression and burnout are different than being lazy. Try if you can to accomplish at least one task a day . Even if its simple. And try to do 2 tasks tomorrow etc...hang in there my friend
Almost no one is truly lazy. Usually, traditionally “lazy” behaviors are a coping strategy for something else: - depression, - anxiety, - social anxiety, - learning disabilities/delays like dyslexia (think of that annoying kid in school who always jokes during class and avoids turning in homework; maybe he actually has trouble reading and is too embarrassed to reach out), - differences like autism, which could make it hard to connect to the people around you, making it hard to ask for help or understand what you should be doing, - PTSD (one big traumatic event like a car crash, being victim of a crime, etc), - or C-PTSD (from repeated trauma, such as abuse/neglect in the home, toxic job, etc), - developmental delays like ADHD, which IS real and involves an underdeveloped frontal lobe of the brain - basically your brain’s “secretary;” this is why ADHD can cause widespread issues in a person’s self care, cleanliness of their home, stability of their emotions, etc
Been there I understand it one solution get out of your bed in the morning put your track shoes on and go for a long long walk and no t.v. shows no phone calls enjoy hours outside of your dwelling bottom line it helped me get a bit of motivation. Good luck.
From my experience, I think burnout has a more direct cause that leads to depression, whereas depression is more amorphous and can’t be traced back to something specific. For me, I’ve had serious problems with depression and more recently burnout. Burnout is directly related to me being unhappy with my job and career. My depression is like a constant drag of self-doubt and self-loathing, which I have to keep fighting, even if I’m happy with work.
@@paulkyriakopoulos3444 Yes. And pulling weeds or other simple tasks have helped me as well. Helps to concentrate and distract from the issues at hand. But yes....walking does miracles.
I wish there was a way for me to send this video to my parent without them knowing I send it. Maybe that’ll stop the abuse and hateful comments they throw at me on the daily 😔
After watching this I refer a burnout as the flame in our heart going out. I’ve had a burnout for 3 years straight and I never realized until now, the only thing that sparked my flame is going to work, I’m very talkative with all my co workers since they’ve known me for 14 years, some of them at least cuz my mom has worked there for 16 years and she would sometimes bring me and my sister with her. So I’m amongst friends even tho they are older to me, but for me they are like family to me
Thank you for this video. It succinctly summarizes issues I’ve had for several years. I know I was burned out, but I couldn’t tell what’s from burnout and what was just laziness. I’d lost motivation, neglected self-care with regards to exercise and keeping my home from not being a total mess. Routine tasks like doing dishes and taking out trash became monumental tasks for me. I’d stopped looking forward to a new day and just wanted to stay in bed all the time. I’m still not entirely sure how to fully pull myself out of my current situation. I got laid off in January, and thankfully saved enough that money’s not been an issue, even though I’m still unemployed. Getting laid off felt like a huge relief. My mood’s gotten better, but I feel like I need to relearn how to do things I used to do automatically like wake up around a certain time, get out of bed and either shower or exercise then shower, and eat breakfast of some sort. Even regularly checking and sorting mail, folding laundry, and other routine tasks feel like starting from square one again. But I think I’m getting better, because at least I’m thinking about doing things, rather than just want to stay in bed all the time. Part it was from work and part of it is from health issues that haven’t quite gone away, which feels like the other shoe’s about to drop at anytime.
ah I've always thought I was just being lazy to myself but then I found out it was just a burnout. I started losing motivation on everything even the things I love doing, taking care of myself and a lot more, so I guess it makes sense
This video has helped me, and I’m sure many other people. Thank you for providing this information, it’s helpful to know when someone is lazy, or has burnout (such as myself).
I spent seven years pursuing a career as a lawyer. I passed all the exams with flying colours, attended prestigious academic institutions on scholarships, networked as much as I could, did all the internships... I was committed, passionate, and utterly focused on achieving my goal. But it just didn't happen. Time and time again, I'd be turned down for the job. At least one hundred times. I rarely got a reason for my rejection, other than "there's a lot of competition". Mentally, the process broke me, and eventually, my qualifications were out of date, forcing me to abandon the pursuit just before Covid hit. Now, I lack the patience to read anything I don't necessarily have to read. Every task has become that little bit harder to execute. My interest in the law has practically vanished, and has been replaced by a deep bitterness. This video has really helped me realise that I have chronic burnout. At the moment I'm trying to find a new outlet, a new passion completely removed from my old one. I'm hoping that offer me a chance to escape.
I am a visual artist, and always felt passionate about art in general, however I feel so stressed about things in everyday life and so constantly that I can barely focus on work anymore, I’ve even forgotten myself sometimes like skipping meals for a day just because I was too tired to cook or go out to eat. These days I heard some of my family members calling me lazy, one of them even fought me telling I have no future being like this, saying I need to find something to do or study. It really hurts to hear things like this. I mean being an artist has its moments when people will think you live easily and such, but although feeling bad I never stopped, and I struggle so much just to do what I love, it’s so difficult just to wake every morning sometimes, that I don’t see how people that live with me see me in such a bad way... not like I expected someone to offer me help but being treated in such an aggressive way for something you can’t change really hurts deep.
@@Psych2go look at the comment above you?!!! How can you not do something abt it??? Its clearly a scam u only need common sense to realize it, don't needa be a NASA scientist
Yup that is me now that I am older. Because I've had to fight for everything my entire life now and constantly go hard about everything just to try to stay a float I am now burned out in my 30s.
I finally understood what I have...i feel so different and lonely. I feel like nobody really cares about me anymore and that I don't have friends. I have no passions, no interests, nothing makes me happy anymore. I force myself to smile to pretend I am happy so that I don't worry my family and classmates, but because of it it is getting even worse.
I am completely exhausted both physically and mentally and spiritually. Right, I am a survivor of multiple traumas and now I just want to die. I want to do work but it is a struggle for me everyday.
