| A few questions: * How is your sleep? * Are you able to rest properly? * Do you feel exhausted every evening after work? * Are you arguing more with your SO/family/friends than you used to? * Do you have enough motivation to plan things that aren't work-related, like trips, dinner parties, going out with friends? The big problem with burnout is that your ability to recover and rest is severely hampered. If you are anything like me that lack of rest will make you have a very negative outlook on, well, everything. If you are able to I'd take a long vacation, long enough that you are able to get some distance and perspective on the situation. Then I'd see if leaving the company is the right descision or what would be necessary to salvage the situation. I've personally gone through burnout the past year, to the point where I was on sick leave for a few weeks. Those weeks were enough to give me some perspective. Quitting that job and taking a few additional months off was the only was to get through it, though truth be told I'm still suffering from some symptoms of burnout, like a lack of motivation. |
