Have any of you recovered from burnout without stopping full time employment ? If so how?

For me, I just need a break and some time to recharge. So I might take some PTO and go on a long weekend vacation, 4 or 5 days. Or if the weather's nice I might just take one day off (usually the day before or day after my weekend) and go sit on the beach all day.

Your PTO is yours to use. Use it regularly and take care of yourself.

I think I may

I would absolutely recommend taking your PTO. The only way I can rest and recover is by taking a few days off. It doesn't cure the burnout, but it definitely helps.

At this point, I think I have to

I left my toxic job 2 months ago. The year leading up to this point was extremely challenging and I was put in impossible situations with zero leadership support. During that time, I took multiple chunks of PTO and ultimately a month of burnout leave. It helped for a bit but soon I was back in the same place. I tried to implement boundaries, establish routines, do meaningful activities outside of work - all the “right things”… Two months on from leaving I am slowly starting to feel better.

Why are you scared to leave?

If you believe you have burnout, go to a mental health MD. If they agree you have burnout, you can submit paperwork for short term disability. You’re welcome and I wish you well on your journeys 🫶

I stated with a counselor.

Ive noticed you post here frequently, or more frequently than others and Im genuinely curious; how is your role as a Director of Children and Family ministry so stressful? It seems like working for/in a church would be one of the most serene and least stressful jobs out there.

That is a misconception many have. We are a mega church that also has a private school on campus. We carry all the same stresses that any school does.

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?
