It doesn't sound like OPs current burn out is specific to this one job. Most people don't wake up on day 1 of burnout and say "oh man I'm burned out now." In my experience burnout creeps up over years and you only realize it when you can no longer cope.

If they leave this job for a new one they'll still be burned out, just like the last two times in the past year they left their job for a new one.

My advice is the same as other commenters, OP should seek professional help with therapy. There are other things that can help like meditation, but in my experience there's no quick fix.

Sometimes it's not even about job. I have ALL the classical symptoms of burnout, but I still love both my jobs (full time and part time after hours) and would like to continue them, but I just can't gather enough focus to be as productive for the whole day. Fortunately, some light meds, workout and fresh air is starting to help.

100%, it wasn’t the job that made me burn out it’s just an additional factor. I think the straw that broke the camels back was an argument with my partner.
