> it is important to understand that overworking today may impact your mental health tomorrow

That is so true.

I find it helpful to go into situations like that with the cognizance that my main reason to do extra work now are to do less work later (spending a little extra time double checking work, for example, might make you stay an hour or two later for a while, but the return comes when you spend less time fixing bugs or responding to production issues).

Not nearly as helpful to be working extra simply because a business operates as a skeleton crew, for example.
