I’M OVERWHELMED, OVERSTRETCHED AND OVER IT 😋✌🏻

Feeling too tired to give a shit? You’re probably suffering burnout like me… 😀 The past month for me has been insane… I’ve had so much on my plate but it’s kinda my fault too cause I’ve been tryna distract myself (❤️‍🩹)

🚩 Feeling exhausted even after 7 hours of sleep - not having the energy to socialise or enjoy your hobbies.

🚩 Thinking that nothing you do is appreciated - feeling like a failure no matter how hard you try.

🚩 Every day feels like a bad day - struggling to find little things to be happy about and getting increasingly cynical.

🚩 Most of your day is spent on tasks you find overwhelming - feeling like there are constant demands and you’re drowning.

🗓️ First thing is to STOP OVERPACKING YOUR SCHEDULE!! I always feel restless when there’s breathing space but I realised you need breaks to do your own things too!!

💯 Stop trying to make everything “perfect”. I’m a perfectionist but I’m learning that it’s okay to be more strategic about what you wanna dedicate your time and efforts to.

🍃 Go outside!! I stopped working outside of work hours and truly enjoyed my rest days. I find being in greenery really helps! Something about the sounds of rustling trees and chirping birds is really healing <3

💖 Do the things you like (and don’t feel guilty about it). Watched Netflix and played Stardew Valley which helped me decompress and remember that life is not just about hustling 😌

If you’re feeling this way rn too, I feel you 🥲 It’s part and parcel of adulting but we’re all learning!! Dms are open if you wanna talk :-)

🔒 Save for reference and share with someone who’s been feeling overwhelmed too! Follow for more lifestyle content and I’m wishing y’all atb 🫶🏻
