I use like half my PTO on these kinds of days. If I find myself feeling super burnt out or run down, I'll use a PTO day to give myself a mental reset.

Hey it’s there to use !!

I've always been too scared to because I'm afraid that I'll be found out or that I'll get truly very sick shortly after and it will be like the boy who called wolf! I need the courage to do it though because I'm working too hard and I do really need a break

Why do we always feel guilty like this ….breaks are necessary and healthy for workers to continue to perform optimally

I've called out just to have a personal day multiple times, mental health days are just as important as sick days. Sometimes I feel like I really need a reset and taking a day off always helps me to feel better and not overwhelmed when I go back to work.

I agree with you for sure !

Yes I do. Any sign of an impending burnout, I call out. I call them mental health days. Get a massage, manicure, pedicure, maximum rest or whatever makes my day better. Without the least amount of guilt.
