Make time to exercise as your body need to move. Buy a bike and go trail riding on the weekends. Protect time in the middle of the day to go for a walk in your neighborhood (if possible). Force yourself out of funk.
Don't feel like you shouldn't speak up for how you feel. You have every right to feel the way you do. It may even help to find others in the same position as you, if for nothing else than to not feel alone in it.

Working less is probably a better solution.
Can confirm exercise doesn’t help burnout. It made mine worse
Sometimes helps to put time in diary to block for personal time

Naps are key. If you are not productive, take a 20 minute nap followed by some light exercise, yoga or breathing. This has pulled me out of the downward spiral into a productive state. Good luck, it IS hard!!!

Other people might have more difficult circumstances than you do, but that does not diminish how hard this is for you. Your feelings are valid. It’s ok not to be ok. Please speak up. Set boundaries for work. Start and stop at a specified time each day and stick to that as much as possible. Create that separation. Close the laptop when you aren’t working. Make some time for yourself. Give yourself some grace. ❤️

Close them!!! You will feel so much better when they aren’t staring at you
Hard is hard. There's no comparing your situation to others because something that is difficult for one person isn't the same level of difficult for another. You are valid, you are trying to make it work, and you're going to be okay. We're gonna get through this. <3

Same as you. You are not alone.
Have some edibles to reduce anxiety
I’ve been feeling exactly this lately. Don’t even feel like myself anymore.
We all have to deal with it in our own specifics circumstances. That being said, to the degree you feel blessed, I think we all owe it ourselves to not put undue pessimism on other people when they have it worse. So just complain to people who have it better than yourself, not worse.
I feel the exact same way. I'm living with a partner, don't have kids or pets. I'm lucky to be employed and work is kind of slow right now. But I constantly feel guilty I'm not producing as much and questioning my worth because it is so tied into work and career. We all experience difficulty and struggles differently.

You’re struggles are not any less important than others around the globe, even though they may be different. It’s valid to say you feel this way and you don’t have to feel bad about it. 💙
Time for a mental day off. Do the things you want to do, not need to do. You’ll feel better in the morning. 👌
Yeah, I just took a day last Friday and by the time Monday rolled around I was dreading it. I woke up groggy on Tuesday already pulsing with adrenaline about the zoom calls that were just 10 minutes away. I can also tell I’m not producing good work. I’m stammering, I’m slow and people are getting crabby with me at work because a couple of times I’ve just asked not to put my video on. It’s partly because so many staff have been stood down. We have more work. But because everybody left is picking all of it up, I don’t feel like I’m in a position to moan to my boss. I know this sounds crazy. If it was anybody else I’d be telling them to chat to their boss or take some time off. But being at home makes you feel like you’re literally the only one having it hard.
